TMG - URL Normalization

Hey Folks, found a fix for something I haven't seen before and fortunately it was quite a quick one too.  If you are publishing a website via TMG using a publishing rule you will find that, if your URL contains % symbols or "escaped characters" as the Help file calls them, the HTTP Filter which is on all HTTP/HTTPS rules will block it.  This is how to fix it...



To get round this you need to do the following:

Right click the Publishing Rule that you need and click Configure HTTP



Clear the tick box next to "Verify normalization" and then select OK



Now Apply the configuration and you should find the following error:



Will not be present when you log requests to your published site.
