I have a site I'm working on that is built in SharePoint 2010 (Publishing site). Since this will be a public facing site I need to make the URLs prettier. I've tried to do this via IIS 7 URL Rewrite using regular expressions. The pattern I'm using tests out fine but when I enable the rule the site displays as a blank page. When I view source in the browser the only thing that is displayed is a skeletal HTML structure as if the page has no content, no master page or css attached. Below is what I am using as part of my inbound rule:
Regular Expression used:
^(.*?)([^/]+)$
Rewrite URL:
{R:1}style%20library/pages/{R:2}.aspx
Basically I want this: //domain.com/style%20library/pages/home.aspx
to become this: //domain.com/home.aspx.
What am I missing?

I dont know sharepoint, however with IIS you can adjust the home directory and change the root location, so everything starts at /pages/ unless you need it to access information from the style library page? |

Rewriting URL's in SharePoint is more complicated than just setting up the process in IIS. I looked into it a year and a half ago or so, and there are some solutions out there than can aid in this but none of them are perfect and I don't know what the support for it in 2010 is like. We never ended up implementing any of the solutions because there were other features on the site that they would not work with.
You could take a look at the post here and see if it's any help - It's for 2007 though.

The pages, stylesheets and javascript files reside in the style library/pages/ folder but not the master or page layout files. If I make that the root then I'm wondering if that will screw up the connection the pages have with the master file which is referenced in the code as a SharePoint dynamic token. I can't test at the moment since the business group is reviewing the test site but when I can I'll try that. Thanks.

worse case, you can make virtual directories to the prior folder, then repoint your stuff inside the html to that virtual directory. |

Thanks. I'll look into those.
