Weird Route Behavior Under Iis

Yii 1.1 General Discussion
1

I am having a very weird problem with routes under IIS. My server is located under D:\webroot\volunteers and the structure is in the following way:

  • volunteers

– components

– controllers

— HomeController

— AdminController

– extensions

– runtime

– lib

— yii

– config

— config-main.php

–public

— index.php

And here is the config-main:


return array(

	'basePath'=>ROOT,

	'runtimePath'=> realpath(ROOT.'/runtime'),

	'import'=>array(

	    'root.controllers.*',

	    'root.components.*',

	    'root.models.*'   

	), 

	

	'components'=>

        	'urlManager'=>array(

			'urlFormat'=>'path',

			'showScriptName'=>false,

			'caseSensitive'=>false,

			'rules' => array(

                            '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',

                            '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',

			)

		)

	),

	

	/* .... */

);

the index.php


define('ROOT', dirname(__DIR__));


require_once (realpath(ROOT.'/lib/yii/yii.php'));


$config = include(realpath(ROOT.'/config/config-main.php')),


Yii::setPathOfAlias('root', ROOT);


Yii::createWebApplication($config)->run();

and the web.config:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<configuration>

<system.webServer>

 

<directoryBrowse enabled="false" />

 

    <rewrite>

        <rules>

        <rule name="hide-index-php-yii" stopProcessing="true">

            <match url="." ignoreCase="false" />

            <conditions>

            <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" />

            <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" />

            </conditions>

                <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" appendQueryString="true" />

        </rule> 

        </rules>

    </rewrite>

 

</system.webServer> 

</configuration>

The problem:

When I am in a controller (lets say ‘admin’ but it applies to all), Yii::app()->controller->createUrl(‘view’,array(‘id’=>1)) should create ‘/admin/view/id/1’, but it creates url ‘/volunteers/public/admin/view/id/1’. I never had a problem like that on a linux system but at work I have no choice other than using IIS7. What can I do to fix this?
