Permanent redirection in asp.net when old page not exist?

Hope you all are spending a great time in this forum. Today I joined this forum and come with a problem. My problem is that...

Recently i created a website and when I create its pages then 1 page name is misspell. Now I want to redirect this page to real page name. I am using this code:

<system.web>
     <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false"/>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"></modules>

    <httpHandlers>
      <add verb="*" path="misspell url " type="UrlRedirection" validate="false" />
    </httpHandlers>
  </system.web>

This code is fine in local server but when I upload this code on server its show 500 internal server error.

Points: • We used godaddy hosting , IIS 7 .

Need help!

Thanks in Advanced.

Good news, you are using IIS7 and your GoDaddy hosting supports the UrlRewrite module:

This means you do the following:

  1. Delete the <httpHandler> <add /> that you have set up.
  2. Find <system.webServer> in your web.config
  3. Paste this in between the start and close tags:

Code:

<rewrite>
  <rewriteMaps>
    <rewriteMap name="StaticRewrites" defaultValue="">
      <add key="/oldurl.aspx" value="/newurl.aspx" />
    </rewriteMap>
  </rewriteMaps>
  <rules>
    <rule name="RewriteMap Rule">
      <match url=".*" />
      <conditions>
        <add input="{StaticRewrites:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern="(.+)" />
      </conditions>
      <action type="Redirect" url="{C:1}" />
    </rule>
  </rules>
</rewrite>

You can add as many of these rows as you like if you want to redirect several pages:

<add key="/oldurl.aspx" value="/newurl.aspx" />

I just double checked this on my server and it produces a 301 redirect (which is a permanent, seo friendly redirect).
