My understanding is that in order to do a rewrite rule that points at another domain I need ARR running
So I have ARR running on the same IIS server that hosts the 3 web sites that I am interested in. if I attempt somthing simple like the rewrite pattern is a.foo.com -> where the result url ishttp://www.microsoft.com after I enable the URL rewrite rule for the farm anything I try gets me the following error....
HTTP Error 400.0 - Bad Request
The request cannot be routed because it has reached the Max-Forwards limit. The server may be self-referencing itself in request routing topology.
I also have a dns record that defines *.foo.com to point at the iis server. Nothing in the failed rule logs and no indication that the rule was invoked. The rule was created at the server level..
What am I overlooking?
