When I added User-friendly URL using IIS URL Rewrite Module 2.0 i got this server error 500. I followed the guide on official MS learn iis page.

I noticed when I unchecked following option "Create corresponding outbound rewrite rule"

enter image description here

everything works fine, but I need that option to be enabled. With this option all I got is server error 500. What am I doing wrong? This article didn't help me.

I looked at Failed Request Log and saw this message "Outbound rewrite rules cannot be applied when the content of the HTTP response is encoded ("gzip")." Seems like I must turn off compression on iis – nemke Sep 9 '11 at 11:39
