I cannot think of a good workaround for that. One option may be to not use ~ operator and instead rely on absolute URL paths or to sue HTML <base> tag? But it will require substantial changes to the application code, which I am not sure you can afford. Hi WP:

If yes, then you will need to re-install the URL Rewrite so that it applies the patch for the ASP.NET which fixes the Request.RawUrl behavior. Bill, did you install .net 3.5 SP1 after URL rewrite?

The rewrite is working as expected, no issues, but we are unable to retrieve the original url and update the postback url. Both Request.RawUrl and Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL") contain the rewritten URL instead of the orginal URL. What did we miss?
