Asp.net rewrite works locally but not on the host ?

Question

If we program an asp.net rewrite to change www.xyz.com/page.aspx?user=test to www.xyz.com/test it works beautifully on the local machine, but the minute we put it online on the actual domain it doesn't. What could I be doing wrong?

Answer 1

Some hosts don't allow .asp code/technology like yahoo.

Answer 2

Did you add to httpModules/httpHandlers in the machine.config on your server?  You can also register your module or handler with web.config
