Hi all!

We are currently relaunching a website for a client. This client has an older DNN running with URL's in this form:

http://www.domain.de/Serviceangebote/Ausbildung/Lehrstellensuche/tabid/68/Default.aspx

In the new website we have this address for the same page:

http://www.domain.de/service/lehrstellen (which is not on Tabid 68)

To not loose all the Google rankings we want to remap the old url to the new one but we did not find a way to get this done because the "tabid/68" part of the old url always brings us to an admin page in the new installation (which is not really good...)

So, how can I achieve this ?

I think I found a solution.

I entered a record in the TabUrl table like this:

TabId = 95 (the TabId in the new portal)
SeqNr = 0
Url = /Serviceangebote/Ausbildung/Lehrstellensuche/tabid/68
HttpStatus= 301

and recycled the App-Pool

when I entered then in the browser the old url:

http://www.domain.de/Serviceangebote/Ausbildung/Lehrstellensuche/tabid/68/

it works fine. But when I added Default.aspx at the end (which is the url Google has indexed) I got the same old problem -> Redirect to tabid = 68. Adding Default.aspx to the record in TabUrl does not work. So I thought if I can rid of the Default.aspx it should work. I did this by installing IIS URL Rewrite module and adding this snippet to the web.config (in system.webServer):

<rules>
<rule name="All Redirect">
    <match url="^(.*\/)*Default\.aspx$" />
    <action type="Rewrite" url="{R:1}" />
</rule>

Need some more testing but seems to work!
