IIS 6 HTTP Handlers Set differently for IIS 7
While developing in a mutli-platform environment of IIS 6, IIS 7, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, I came across an error with a virtual file not being retrieved. From IIS, The path tried to be accesed was http://localhost/mysite/VirtualFile.asdx
<httpHandlers>
<remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/>
<add verb="*" path="*.asmx" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
<add verb="*" path="*_AppService.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
<add verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
<add verb="GET" path="VirtualFile.asdx" type="MyHandler.GetFilesHandler, MyHandler, Version=4.0.4.5000, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=db5123451235c90db58" />
</httpHandlers>
IIS 7 uses the
system.WebServer section to read from. I just added it there and that resolved the error.
