hi,
we are having a couple of websites and sub applications that contain old classic asp files as well as asp.net .aspx files (some mix asp and aspx in the same project). recently we upgraded ALL projects to vs2010 and asp.net 4.0. (no sub-application is using an 2.0 apppool!)
however when we are calling http://ourdomain.local we get an asp.net 4.0 404 error!
when calling http://ourdomain.local/default.asp it is working.
default.asp is in the list of default documents in iis. (i also removed and readded it)
we could only get the extensionless urls working on our old staging server (2003 ii6) via the extensionlessurl registry hack (http://www.asp.net/learn/whitepapers/aspnet4/breaking-changes#0.1__Toc256770153 option 3).
but we are still having this problem on every team members computers - using win 7 iis 7.5 as well as our new staging server (win 2008 r2). the registry hack only seams to work for iis6.
"Aspnet_regiis.exe -i" did NOT help, too!
that to do to get the default document working? i search the web and tested so many things the whole day without success. :(
(we can not go back to asp.net 2.0)
thanks, tobi
