Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 7

Im trying to run a Umbraco with SSL, but when i do I cant upload images / files in the Media section for some reason.

I added this to the web.config to force SSL :

   <rule name="Redirect to HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
      <match url="(.*)" />
      <conditions>
      <add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
      </conditions>
      <action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" redirectType="SeeOther" />
    </rule>

And set

<add key="umbracoUseSSL" value="true" />

When i try to upload a file in the Media section, I get the error : File type is not allowed here

Tryed to inclue this rule into the web.config also

<location path="umbraco">
    <system.webServer>
      <urlCompression doStaticCompression="false" doDynamicCompression="false" dynamicCompressionBeforeCache="false" />
      <rewrite>
        <rules>
          <clear />
        </rules>
      </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
  </location>

To see if i could get it to ignore ssl in the backend, but it still fails.

Anybody have any ideas ?

I don't know the cause, but on your clearing of rules of the umbraco path, does that work? I've always added a condition to my rules like this one

          <rule name="LowerCase" stopProcessing="true">
            <match url="[A-Z]" ignoreCase="false" />
            <conditions>
              <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/assets/" negate="true" />
              <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/media/" negate="true" />
              <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/umbraco/" negate="true" />
              <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/umbraco_client/" negate="true" />
              <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/install/" negate="true" />
            </conditions>
            <action type="Redirect" url="{ToLower:{URL}}" />
          </rule>

Hi David

It seems to work yea.

Ones i started my solution in another browser, or incognito mode, it worked.

My problem was that it seems that Chrome cached a script of some sort, that contains a string of file types that are allowed. This string was empty, so no files was allowed.

Ones i got my cache fully cleared it worked :)

Thx for your response anyway, and I might try your conditions for a rule at some point.
