Script not served by static file handler on IIS7 5

Question

I ve just tried to deploy my first web application to IIS on my Windows 7 Home Premium notebook   After creating the application  I had to change to the Classic App Pool  then set that pool for framework 4 0   Now I get the following error      HTTP Error 404 17 - Not Found The requested content appears to be   script and will not be served by the static file handler    The requested URL is http   localhost 80 pvmms default aspx  I m afraid extensive Googling has yielded nothing clear or definite enough for me to work with and as usual I ve turned to the experts   EDIT  I suspect this is because there are no framework 4 0 handler mappings for  aspx files   However  aspnet regiis even gives my admin user the finger and says I need admin rights to run it   EDIT  2  I registered all the frameworks  2  amp  4  32 and 64  and all now works   I found this by manually adding a script map for  aspx to aspnet isapi and voila   I don t understand why the installation of the framework doesn t do this  unless my memory fails me and I only enabled IIS after installing VS

For other people reading this   This can happen is if the  Net version that you have registered isn t the one selected under the  Basic Settings  of the application pool attached to your website   For instance  your sites application pool has  Net v2 0 selected but you registered v4 0

I solved this problem by enabling WCF Services  Programs and Features  gt  NET Framework 4 5 Services  gt  WCF Services gt  HTTP Activation node  But you have to admit it guys this ENTIRE IIS setup configure guess trial and see try this try that spends 4 or 5 of our days trying to find a solution around approach IS A COMPLETE AND UTTER JOKE   SURELY   IIS  IS THE BIGGEST CONFIDENCE TRICK EVER PLAYED ON MANKIND TO DATE

There is a chance that application pool created for you application by default is version 2  So although you see a handler for  svc extension in the list it does not work and treat it as static file  All you need is to open application pool properties and switch it to version 4

Maybe too late now  but more often than not you need to run    aspnet regiis exe -i     after installing asp net  Maybe I would do it anyway now

If you are using iis 7 5   Just go to IIS Manager  open your website properties   You will see  Handler Mappings  section there  just go to that section and Search for  staticFile    Most probably its a last file in the list   Then Right Click on it and Select  Revert To Parent    I have wasted so many hours while i have faced this first time  anyways this will solve your problem

Using IIS manager  I found that  aspx files were mapped  under  Handler Mappings   to ISAPI 2 0 - even though ASP NET 4 5 had been previously installed  Editing them to point  also  to an executable for ISAPI 4 0 64bit fixed the issue    The executable was found in   windir  Microsoft NET Framework64 v4 0 30319 aspnet isapi dll

One of the worst case scenario I just solved is - having conflicting  entry in Web config   On my local machine I didn t had  woff extension registered in IIS  so I added it using Web config  But on production server  woff had mime type registered  This caused application level conflict   Funny part is there are no error logged for this  Just a guess work  first time of course    So for me solution was just to remove  and or  elements from web config

I had this same issue on a windows 8 machine I am setting up   I had installed vs2012 before vs2010  which installs  NET framework 4 5   I have my app pools running in 4 0   I made sure I had aspnet registered for 4 0 using aspnet regiis -i   That still didn t do the trick   Then I opened up the Windows Features and noticed that 4 5 added a set called   NET Framework 4 5 Advanced Services    I enabled the WCF Service node and its children and then my svc endpoint operated correctly   Hope this helps folks who are making the move to Windows 8

I had this issue with Windows Server 2012 with ASP  NET 4 5 you can t use aspnet regiis exe  and just have to install ASP  NET 4 5 via the Add Roles and Features Wizard     You can find the menu item  Add Roles and Features  in the menu  Manage   in the right corner of Server Manager

Just another possible solution I found having the same error message   When trying to setup a  NET 4 0 web application to a new applicition pool I was receiving this strange error telling me it was trying to process my aspx file with the static file handler  which didn t make sense   For some reason the ISAPI for  NET 4 0 was set to disabled in the ISAPI and CGI Restrictions area of the server level in the IIS manager  Setting it to enabled was all that was required  however the IIS 7 5 manager is so convoluted and hard to follow it took me a long time to figure this out   I m guessing that since it was a 4 0 Application that could not be processed by the 4 0 Engine the static file handler was being used by default
