Server is not processing requests of lower case URLs.

Asked By amber patel 0 points N/A Posted on - 09/08/2016

When I am trying to load a .Net page from my browser, I am unable to access it because the DNS name is case sensitive. The same website can be accessed when URL is typed in upper case. How can this ambiguity be solve?

Server is not processing requests of lower case URLs.

This kind of a problem arises if the server is configured to respond to URLs with uppercase letters only, and is not permitted to redirect the lowercase version of the same URLs. You can use the URL rewrite Modules available online, to solve this problem in case you are using an IIS 7 server. They have a ready-made options within the interface that you can use to

enforce lowercase URLs. You can also add a rule directly to the web config file, in order to solve the problem. Refer to the diagram given below:
