Hi,

Can someone please help with the rules to do a redirect for non www to www domains? i.e. from mysite.com to www.mysite.com. However, I need both .com and .co.uk sites to be redirected. I have found code for ISAPI v3 on the site but not for v2 unfortunately.

Thanks.

Thanks for your response but I was after the rules to rerwrite any .com or any .co.uk to www.xxx.com or .co.uk - i.e. a generic rule to force all to use www. Sorry if I wasn't clear. Would you know how to do that?

Cheers.

Hi,

I found the rules to write any non-www for any .com but a.) these are just for .com and whenever I try and use .co.uk it seems to fail, and b.) it's for version 3 and if I try and change it for use with version 2 it fails. Anyway, here is the v3 ruleset:

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} (on)?
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} ^(?!www\.)(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)
RewriteRule .? http(?%1s)://www.%2%3 [R=301,L]

This can be found in the documentation examples. So, what I'm after is this, but for version 2, and the same thing for .co.uk domains. If it can be done with V3 I think it's within the scope of what the Helicon API can do, it's just that I'm not good enough to convert it to V2 or do the same for .co.uk. So, if you could come up with something based on the example above, I'd be most grateful!

Cheers.

Thanks Lexey.

Didn't work to start with but I found something similar and so removed a ?

RewriteCond Host: (?!www\.)(.*)
RewriteCond %HTTPS (on)|.*
RewriteRule (.*) http(?2s:)\://www.$1$3 [I,RP]

All working niceley now. Thanks.
