I am trying to rewrite the URL through "Using URL Rewrite Module" on IIS7 (windows 7).
URL: http://localhost/AIM/group-discussion/videos.aspx?id=4&title=some-title
Rewrite URL: http://localhost/AIM/group-discussion/videos/4/some-title
Rewrite rule:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="RewriteUserFriendlyURL1" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^AIM/group-discussion/videos/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$" />
<conditions>
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="AIM/group-discussion/videos.aspx?id={R:1}&title={R:2}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I am getting 404 error while accessing rewrite URL (http://localhost/AIM/group-discussion/videos/4/some-title)
following error log through "Failed request tracing" in IIS7
MODULE_SET_RESPONSE_ERROR_STATUS
ModuleName="IIS Web Core", Notification="MAP_REQUEST_HANDLER", HttpStatus="404", HttpReason="Not Found", HttpSubStatus="0", ErrorCode="The system cannot find the file specified.
(0x80070002)", ConfigExceptionInfo=""
I am running site in "Integrated Pipe mode"

Try using process monitor from www.sysinternals.com. That will let you know what it's attempting to do on disk. Possibly you just need a / at the beginning of your rewrite path.
If it doesn't show attempting to do anything on disk then try Failed Request Tracing. That will provide even further details.
