    Hi There,

    I have installed wordpress blog on one of my asp.net website under sub-directory in Windows server.

    Like this – xyz.com/Blog

    Since permalinks doesn’t work properly, my tech team recommended me to move my wordpress blog from windows to Linux sever to make permalinks work. But I cannot simply move wordpress blog to Linux server because its on my asp.net website sub-directory.

    Can anyone out there give me a best solutions for this?

    You have two options, the easiest of which is going to likely be just making your blog a subdomain instead of a subdirectory, so blog.xyz.com. Then just setup a redirect from xyz.com/blog to the new subdomain.

    If you absolutely want to keep the blog in a subdirectory, you likely would need some form of reverse proxying … which is a completely different discussion and probably not suited for this forum. This route is not ideal and if you want to set it up it would be best to hire someone who is familiar with doing that sort of thing.

    Changing to a subdomain is easiest 🙂
