If we own www.ourdomain.com and wanted to rewrite the url to say www.google.com, how would we deal with gzip compression on say the google domain. I'm trying to do a proof of concept and i believe the issue is the website we are trying to rewite to uses gzip so IIS cant read the content? I have disabled all compression on our side. DO we need some sort of precondition?
HTTP Error 500.52 - URL Rewrite Module Error. Outbound rewrite rules cannot be applied when the content of the HTTP response is encoded ("gzip").
