I have a problem that normally another guy would solve but he is on holidays and I know little about DNN5 and IIS7.

I have a customer of a customer that wants increase their page rank in google through SEO. They requested domainname.com.au to be redirect to www.domainname.com.au. They have 1 portal on DNN6 and 2 portals on DNN5.

I successfully got the redirect to work on DNN6 so that domainname.com.au/* redirects to www.domainname.com.au but on DNN5 only domainname.com.au redirects to www.domainname.com.au. If you were to visit domainname.com.au/page.aspx it would throw a 404 error.

Changing setting back to none does not stop the redirect. I don't want to delete the aliases and add them back again in case it causes the entire portal to not work.

Installation Details: DotNetNuke Community Edition 05.06.03 (45).

There are updates available but I am not allowed to update the portal.

Any advice?

Do you have access to the databases? I would perform the following:

  1. Make a complete backup of both the database and application directories.
  2. Check the portal alias table (Select * from [PortalAlias]). If every portal is on their own database,etc. you can check to see all of the alias for the site and whether everything maps correctly. If things don't look right you can make adjustments via the host settings and revert back to backup if necessary.
  3. Run this query (Select * from [PortalSettings] Where SettinggName = 'PortalAliasMapping'). What does it report back?

I tried this and it was set on REDIRECT, i changed it back to none and restarted the server and it still redirects.
