asp .net 4.0 app on IIS7 Error 404.17 - asp.net

I am having a problem setting up a website under IIS 7. I have created an application and the application pool for the application. Application pool is using .Net Framework 4.0 as my .net app is written in .Net Framework 4.0. Application pool is set to use classic Pipeline Mode. MIME Types have been automatically added to .asp & .aspx.
When I run the website windows explorer is showing me "View Downloads" and trying to download "application name localhost" when it downloads the file I notice that its the html of my default.aspx. I have checked Default Document and it contains Default.aspx.
If I remove .asp & .aspx MIME Types then I get an error: HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.

I have seen this problem many times. IIS is not serving aspx pages and most likely is not running for the entire server or that site.
For the entire server: Check to see if iis world wide web service is running.
For the site alone: Hit run inside IIS.
You can easily know if IIS is running properly by going to IIS and hit the browse option from inside a web site.

With the data you have put these are the things I would try in order if I were you:
Check in Server Manager/ Features if ASP.NET is installed (ServerManager/Roles/Web Server(IIS) look for ASP.NET
Check IIS Manager if everything is ok by:
Try to browse a test.html file to see if you are able to browse normal
Check Basic settings by clicking Test Settings
Check Handler Mappings to see if aspx is there.
Try to browse a sample test.aspx page with test data.
Check Application pool settings.
Reinstall Framework 4.0
Reboot machine ( a classical)
If you gave us more info and/or the ouput of my proposed tests maybe can help more. Good Luck :)

I had the 404.17 error happening on a server today. As you and cad mentioned, I checked the framework of the Application Pool that my site was using to make sure it was set to ASP.Net 4.0, and it was. What happened in my case is that my site was not using the application pool that I thought it was. My site was nested under another site, meaning my site pointed to a subfolder but another site was pointing to the root folder. Even though I had my site set to use the ASP.Net 4.0 Application Pool, the root site used a different Pool that had ASP.Net turned off, it was set to "No managed code". When I set the framework to 4.0 for the Pool the parent site was using, then my site started working.

In my case the solution was fixing the Handler mappings as explained here: http://forums.iis.net/post/1943489.aspx
IIS Manager->high-light you web site->click Handler Mappings icon on
the home pane->click Revert to Parent...
on the right Actions pane

Published website ASP.NET with IIS

I have just completed my website and I started working with IIS it works fine when I put all my file without published. I copy the whole website to wwwroot inside my folder as I said It works fine but when I tried to work without code behind page it didn't work I published website from VS. and I copy my published file to the same folder but it doesn't work.
I received this error:
Eval is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.
I don't want to put my code behind page. How can I run my published pages?
First, when you publish your web project, their are no code behind pages.
Do this, set a directory and publish your site in it.
Now cmd-> intemgr->
site-> -> add web site->
give site name and select an application pool, then set the physical path to the directory where your application is published, if necessary change the port to something like 50 because 80 is a standard port for http. Hit ok. Your site is ready.
Please check in application pool that your application pool is set to .Net framework version V4.0 (i mean the version compatible to your app ).
just click to browser the site, please do check the uri you can see the port number also

aspx pages downloads after hosting in IIS?

We hosted the website in IIS. When we test the home page of our site IIS suddenly offering to download the aspx page instead of rendering .
We hosted the website in IIS 7.0. Website developed with DotnetFramework 4.0.
Please help me in identify the bottom of the problem.
You'll need to drop into the command prompt and navigate to the folder;
c:\windows\microsoft.NET\Framework\V4.0.30319\
and type the command aspnet_regiis -i
this will configure the IIS server to correctly process the aspx files - not sure why it would work previously and then suddenly stop working, have you used this explicit version of .NET on this server before?
You have to configure it once again. Before that, follow some steps mentioned below:
You have to build the web application within your Visual Studio.
After successful build,you have to publish the application and save that published copy to specific folder say 'MyPublieshedApp'.
Start IIS and add new website. You have to point the folder which contains the published content of your application. In this case the folder should be 'MyPublishedApp'.
Set the application pool and set the framework version to ASP.NET 4.0.
5.Then browse one of the page after configuring it into the IIS.
May be this will help you.

Startup Page on host server doesn't work in asp.net web application

In visual studio MyProject properties I set the Login.aspx page as startup page and it works fine when I use the local host, however when I publish to the external host server the startup page is ignored and the aspx page in the URL is displayed. What am i doing wrong? host server has IIS6, 3.5 FrameWork
Startup Action, and specific page in this case is only used for Debugging purposes, not for the initial page to load on your web host.
If your web host is using IIS7, you can use the <defaultDocument> web.config element.
Otherwise, you can set the value in IIS (see here), or possibly find a workaround elsewhere.
The startup page is only for the ASP.NET Development server that is created by Visual Studio..used for testing & debugging your code.
Since you're publishing to IIS 6.5, you can set your default documents(s) on the website's Documents tab in IIS. Add your default starting page to the list there & move it to the top.
On II6 if you right click the web site --> Properties then go to Documents, there is a Enable Default Document. That list is where the default document is set.

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden Error when accessing website

So I have all the updated code, the entire solution builds. It works on everyone else's machine, however when I try and access localhost/extranet on my machine, it gives me this error:
HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden
Detail Error Info:
Module DirectoryListingModule
Notification ExecuteRequestHandler
Handler 0x00000000
Requested URL http://localhost:80/extranet/
Physical Path C:\svn\K2\trunk\appteam\web\Chatham.Web.UI.Extranet\
Logon Method Anonymous
Logon User Anonymous
Now I tried going into IIS7, and enabling directory browsing, this removed the error, but still didn't bring up my website. I also tried going in and disabling the default document, re-enabling it, everything, nothing worked. I've also restarted IIS a few times to no avail.
Any ideas?
It sounds like your IIS is not processing the routing rules for your application and is trying to find a default.aspx, index.htm, etc. Since it cannot, it is wanting to display the directory listings (which is why you were getting the 404.14).
I just checked my dev setup and I think that your AppPool has to be set on Integrated as opposed to Classic on the Managed Pipeline for the AppPool. I have ran into this before, there may be ways to use the Classic Pipeline, but this would/should be the quickest way to resolve your issue. To check/change the pipeline mode, click on Application Pools from the menu on the left side of IIS, find your AppPool and look in the managed pipeline column. If it is set to Classic -> Right click the AppPool, choose basic settings, then change the dropdown from Classic to Integrated.
If I am incorrect, someone please feel free to correct me on this in the comments.
Edit - Just to add, you can run an MVC app in the Classic Pipeline mode, but you have to do the IIS 6 tricks to get it to work properly. Mainly, you need to turn on wildcard script mapping for MVC to work in Classic mode, If not it expects an .aspx file (or similar) to exist for it to handle the execution pipeline over to .NET from IIS.
Causes this error is removed Global.asax file from your root directory of your site.
To solve this problem add a Global.asax file to your project.
See here: How to add Global.asax file to ASP.NET MVC4 project
In IIS, you need to find out which app pool your application is running from. Just right click the web application under Sites>Manage Web Site>Advanced Settings. The first property should be the app pool.
Now, click Application Pools. You should see a column called "Identity". Add that user to the ACL of the C:\svn\K2\trunk\appteam\web\Chatham.Web.UI.Extranet\ directory. If it just says 'ApplicationPoolIdentity', it can be a little tricky figuring out the user. If it's just running under DefaultAppPool, you can use IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool.
My solution was because I didn't have ASP.NET installed via "Turn Windows Features on and Off" so it was simple. I figured it out by enabling directory browser and trying to go to my views folder which then gave a more descriptive answer and pretty much said that there was a problem with a module because ASP.NET is not properly installed. It then dawned on my to go and install it.
Change the 'start page' by right click on the page and select 'Set as Start Page' that you want to open first when the web application starts first. This might solve your problem. :)
Also make sure in IIS Application Pool settings that Enabled 32-bit Applications under Advanced Settings is set to FALSE. I spent hours trying to fix this and that was my issue. Windows Server 2012 IIS 8.5
I solved this problem by setting exact .net framework. My website was using v4.0 version of .net.
Workaround to handle the problem:
Open command line as an administrator
Go to directory "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319"
Execute the following: aspnet_regiis.exe -i
Open IIS and change Pipeline Mode of Your application to Integrated
Hope this helps
In my case the HTTP Redirection feature was missing on the server (with IIS 10).
Adding the feature resolved the issue and the site started to load fine.

IIS5 or IIS6 Web Application running under IIS7?

I have a web application that runs fine under IIS5 or IIS6. I just installed Vista, which has IIS7. I just copied the entire web app over as-is, no changes to any files. I went into the IIS7 manager and created a web appliction under the Default Web Site and pointed it to the app I copied over.
When I try to browse to the app in IE, it tells me there's nothing there to handle it and that directory browsing is not turned on. This is a .NET app, so it uses Default.aspx. I looked in the manager, and there was no handling of Default.aspx setup. Is that not on by default for IIS7?
So, I added Default.aspx, and now the error is "HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found
The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map."
I thought maybe it was because the default for IIS7 is Integrated Mode, so I created a new AppPool for Classic Mode and changed my app to use that. I still get the same error.
I was under the impression that I could move .NET apps to IIS7 without any changes. Is this not true?
0) Check if you have asp.net extensions installed under Programs and Features - Windows Features - WWW services - Application Development Features - .Net Extensibility / ASP.Net
1) The Microsoft .net framework
2) Try copying the whole directory to your IIS's root folder (usually wwwroot), common error that iuser/iwam does not have rights to read the other folder.
3) Check under "Handler Settings" if you have .aspx associated with any Isapimodules.
