Is there something I need to do after modifying the httpd.ini file in order for the changes I've made to take effect?

Thanks.  -bg

Updates should be loaded automatically but ISAPI_Rewrite should at least have permissions to read this file.

I'm not sure where I'm going wrong then.  I've given Read and Execute rights to IIS_WPG group to the the httpd.ini file in the website root directory.

In this httpd.ini file, the first rewrite is working, but the second one is not:

[ISAPI_Rewrite]

# Redirect any URLs containing the internal=1 variable to same URL without it
RewriteRule ^(.*)?(internal=1&|\?internal=1|&internal=1&|&internal=1)(.*) $1$3 [RP]

# Force proper subdomain on all requests
RewriteCond %HTTP_HOST ^domainname\.com
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.domainname.com/$1 [RP,L]

There is nothing in the httpd.parse.errors file.

I've tried other code that works in the Regular Expression Test Utility in place of the second rule, and it doesn't work either.

Server is Windows 2003 Server 32-bit.

Thanks.  -bg

Ack!!!  It now seems to be working, and I didn't change anything.

I hate it when that happens...  -bg

Configuration file is being reloaded only upon a second request to a related web site. Also, if some program (for example, your text editor) holds write lock on a configuration file it can not be reloaded at all.
