Simple SEO URL (OLD version) [support thread]

[countrycharm]

I am trying to get Simple SEO to work on an IIS 7 server that has the Helicontech ISAPI_Rewrite v3 software installed. This offers .htaccess support. However although SSU installed without errors and appears in the Zen admin, it isnt rewriting the product /category links.

In the support documentation for Helicontech it says the "[E=var:val] set environment variable" has no relevance in a Windows environment. So, I'm wondering if there is a workaround for this, or should I look at another rewrite system? Has anyone had a success with any of the rewriters in a Windows environment? (I'd switch to linux but I have other sites on the same package using IIS)

I don't know much about IIS but you can read this here.

1. If you server is using IIS instead of Apache, better get the latest version
2. In fact, better get the latest version in any case
3. Make sure you have uploaded ALL files correctly, missing one or two files is not uncommon
4. If all done and still not work, check to make sure mod_rewrite is really working
