Re: Atlas problem with clean URLs using ISAPI Filter "Isapi_Rewrite"

Hi,

Jeeran wrote:
We use an ISAPI filter to convert long urls into short clean ones. For example:
"Site.com/user/john/"
Is re-written as:
"Site.com/user/userinfo.aspx?uid=john"

Now, "userinfo.aspx" contains a web user control which uses some Atlas functionality; The web user control contains a "DataList" which gets updated asynchronously through Atlas when the user clicks a button –the button is the Atlas trigger.

The page acts as it should when we access it using the actual (long) URL, but when we use the clean url –which goes through the ISAPI filter- we get a javascript alert through Atlas saying "Unknown Error" when we click the trigger button.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Normally, and if I am not mistaken, the URL rewriting shouldn't affect the Atlas call, since the request sent is a normal HTTP request, and since the redirect is done very early.

If I were you, I would try and use Fiddler to observe the HTTP traffic, and see exactly what error is sent back from the server.

HTH,
Laurent
