Trying to exclude css and js files with IIRF rewrite

I'm trying to get IIRF working so that it rewrites certain URLs, but ignores files like .css and .js files.

I have URLs like:

/admin/
/admin/user/
/admin/user/view-details/1
/admin/user/view-details/1?edit

Which all work, but I can't seem to get this to work:

/admin/_assets/css/admin.css

My .ini file looks like this:

RewriteRule /admin/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)\?edit$ /admin/index.php?edit&action=$1&sub-action=$2&id=$3 [L,I,QSA]
RewriteRule /admin/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ /admin/index.php?edit&action=$1&sub-action=$2&id=$3 [L,I,QSA]
RewriteRule /admin/([^/]+)/$ /admin/index.php?action=$1 [L,I,QSA]
RewriteRule ^/admin/(.*)$ - [L]

I've also tried:

RewriteRule (.+\.)(php|jpg|png|jpeg|gif|ttf|sql|txt|htm|zip|css)$ - [L]

The things I've tried give either a blank document when I navigate directly to the css file, or I get:

HTTP Error 404.4 - Not Found
The resource you are looking for does not have a handler associated with it.

I don't have much experience with IIRF or IIS, so I'm a bit stuck with what to try next. Am I looking in the wrong place? Or have I made a really basic mistake?

Thanks

Solution

  • I've managed to fix this by adding:

    RewriteRule /admin/_assets/(.+)$ /admin/_assets/$1 [L,I,QSA]

    to the top of my file. I'm still not sure why nothing is being logged, but this fixed it for my needs.
