I have a php Facebook application which I have uploaded in a Microsoft server. When I run the application i get this error. Does anybody know the cause of this ?
405 - HTTP verb used to access this page is not allowed. The page you are looking for cannot be displayed because an invalid method (HTTP verb) was used to attempt access.
This question is related to
http-status-code-405
httpverbs
I fixed mine by adding these lines on my IIS webconfig.
<httpErrors>
<remove statusCode="405" subStatusCode="-1" />
<error statusCode="405" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/my-page.htm" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
</httpErrors>
I've been pulling my hair out over this one for a couple of hours also. fakeartist appears correct though - I changed the file extension from .htm to .php and I can now see my page in Facebook! It also works if you change the extension to .aspx - perhaps it just needs to be a server side extension (I've not tried with .jsp).
In my case, IIS was fine but.. uh.. all the files in the folder except web.config had been deleted (a manual deployment half-done on a test site).
It means litraly that, your trying to use the wrong http verb when accessing some http content. A lot of content on webservices you need to use a POST to consume. I suspect your trying to access the facebook API using the wrong http verb.
In the Facebook app control panel make sure you have a forward slash on the end of any specified URL if you are only specifying a folder name
i.e.
Page Tab URL: http://mypagetabserver.com/custom_tab/
Try renaming the default file. In my case, a recent move to IIS7.5 gave the 405 error. I changed index.aspx to default.aspx and it worked immediately for me.
