Redirect Loop

I'm having trouble with any tab that's not rewritten by the URLRewrite looping indefinitely.

It amounts to any of the administrative tools being "stuck" in the loop. Any link below the main site seems to work fine, it only appears to be affecting the main pages (anything that is defined default.aspx?tabid=xx)

I've checked the portalAlias table and verified that the aliases are accurate. I'm at a loss. I don't know what else to look into. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Redirect Loop

Wow...I did not explain that well. Let me try again.

URLs that are rewritten:
http://domain.com/URL/re/written/tabid/90/default.aspx

Work correctly.

URLs that are not (except for tab 1):
http://domain.com/default.aspx?tabid=90

Do not work and are stuck in the infinite redirect loop.

This site worked fine about 2 days ago, until we uploaded it to it's live home.
I've gone through the portalAlias table and I don't see any aliases that aren't being handled. What else might be causing this?

Re: Redirect Loop

Sorry what do you mean "not rewritten by the URLRewrite looping indefinitely."?

Do you mean your home page is redirecting to your home page recursively?

Re: Redirect Loop

I'm not really following what you mean. Do you have another app to do admin?

What happens when you turn off friendly Urls?

Re: Redirect Loop

The admin interface is skinned as a seperate menu. Those are the specific pages that loop recursively on themselves.

The home page(tab 1) loads fine.

This is the browser error (Firefox):

The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
