Hi John, I am in the process of adding my 301 redirects to my new website. I have added probably 20 or so rules, and I just added another one and it blew my site apart. I am receiving an error. I turned on the custom error in the web.config and this is what I am getting. I can't get to anything on my website. Can you please help me out:

Yes John you were exactly right. The name I had given the rule had an "&" sign in it. Thank you for showing me that I could open the config file and edit it. I appreciate it

Ahhh, that is the validation I missed. I need to make sure that the name of the rule is checked for invalid XML characters. Thanks for letting me know where it was.

Hi Stephanie, It looks like there is an error in your configuration file (most likely the Portal Rules one). If you look in the DesktopModules/Snapsis/PageBlaster/Config/PortalRules, you should see a config file with your portal rules in it. If you can zip that up and attach it here I'll see if I can find the error. To get back into your site you can rename that file for now.

As I think about it, it is probably a Url that you used with an Ampersand (&) in it. I may need to do some more validation on the input, but that is supposed to be blocked out by using a CDATA section. You may be able to fix it by just removing the last rule that you put in from that file.
