Upgraded server Framework to 4.0. Using Godaddy hosting. The website is now showing this error
500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.
On searching the internet found this:
Error message when you visit a Web site that is hosted on IIS 7.0: "HTTP Error 500.0 – Internal Server Error"
The link above says:
Resolution 2
Make sure that the server that is running IIS 7.0 can access the configured root directory of the requested location.
I am not sure what to do.
Is your Application Pool running on .NET 4.0 or .NET 2.0?
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754523(WS.10).aspx
Open IIS Manager. For information about opening IIS Manager, see Open IIS Manager (IIS 7).
On the Connections pane, expand the server node and click Application Pools.
On the Application Pools page, select the application pool for which you want to specify a .NET Framework version, and then click Basic Settings in the Actions pane.
In the Edit Application Pool dialog box, in the .NET Framework version list, select the version that you want the application pool to use or select No Managed Code if the application uses only native code.
Click OK.

Not sure if this would help, but it's an issue I ran into when upgrading to .NET 4. The person who had managed the site before me had used IIS manager to configure settings and it added references to .NET 3.5 in the web.config. Removing all references/assemblies related to 3.5 and below fixed the issue.
This can also happen if you are using third party controls like Telerik or if something is wrong in the web.config file. Try to remove the httpHandlers/httpModules from web.config file and if this solves the problem, you can add them one by one to check which handler/module might be causing the problem.

I'm hosting a web application (.Net 4.5) to a remote server using IIS 8.5. The application runs well locally and on the remote IIS, however there is a single page "/Reports/ReportsMain.aspx" that causes the error "The resource cannot be found." I made sure that the page exists.
I also made sure that the .Net version for the application pool is set to 4.0.However I noticed the following:
1- When I accessed this page remotely for the first time I got a browser "Login" popping up, although there should be no authentication here at all
2- The error page shows at the bottom "Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version: 2.0, ASP.NET Version: 2.0 " although I've set the application pool to 4.0
What could be the problem ?
A couple things to try
Make sure there is not a duplicate site in IIS that is capturing the request
Restarting IIS is never a bad option
Make the web.config itself is set to target framework 4.0 and not 2.0
Usually when this happens where it works fine locally but not when deployed it always turns out to be the third item, a web.config configuration mis-match. Hope this helps!
I had this problem.
another solution can be changing the Application Pool settings:
go to the application pool related to your application. Click advanced settings. Change the "Enable 32-Bit Application"
I just ran into this response, and turns out it was caused by a StackOverflowException inside the action that supposedly could not be found. I was able to see this by attaching to IIS using the visual studio debugger. Go figure. I was doing a POST though.
As Seany84 explained in their comment above, if you have migrated from to 2.0 to 4.0, most probably your webconfig contains some tags that are incompatible with new version. In my case there was an 'applicationSettings' section that caused the problem. After removing this tag from webconfig my webservis started to run properly.
When you get
The resource cannot be found.
error on the server but it works fine locally - it could be caused by your server running out of disk space. Navigate to the server and check directory structure to see if the file exists. Also check your log messages for more details.
Folder Permissions on wwwroot.
Add IUSR with (Read & execute , Read)
Add (machine name)\ IIS_IUSRS (Read & execute , Read)
If IIS doesn't have permissions to access the file, you will be blocked
I had this problem and i fix it following way,
Make sure you don't have any errors in web config,
For finding error goto
IIS > your application >Manage Application > browse
A page will open in internet explorer,
You will find error here, fix it and restart application it will work
I was able to resolve my issue by leaving the IIS Site Bindings 'Host Name' blank.
I have tried all the answers all of them are useful. But in my case after changing these settings Restarting my machine (not just the IIS). worked for me
I know there are related posts here on this forum and another resources but I got stuck with this and couldnt proceed.Problem is i've done a website with vs2010 when i publish it to ftp server and navigate to url adress I got this error. Here the things that i've done
-I've enabled IIS services and static content
-I've revert to parent the staticFile under handler mappings
-I've registered the asp.net again in command prompt(the regiis.exe thing)
-In IIS manager i've added my website adress under sites, stopped default web site and started mine.
-I've added my site to classic.NET AppPool(integrated,and v4.0)
-I've enabled the default browsing..
-I've done all the advices that generally covered..
Here is my web.config
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<directoryBrowse enabled="true" showFlags="Date, Time, Size, Extension" />
<defaultDocument>
<files>
<add value="AnaSayfa.aspx" />
</files>
</defaultDocument>
</system.webServer>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
</configuration>
where am I doing mistake? I've spent 2 days and couldnt proceed an inch.I will burst into tears if this problem solved.Any help will be greatly,greatly,greatly! appreciated,will be my hero,master (: thanks
Go to Command Prompt and install / repair ASP.NET
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319>aspnet_regiis -i
Go to IIS => Select the Server Name (System Name)
Go to ISAPI and CGI restrictions
Allow the Not Allowed restrictions.
I got this working when i change the app pool's .Net framework version to my application's .net framework version.
My application's framework version was 4.0 but app pool's setting was defaulted to 2.0. I had to change it to 4.0, then it worked fine.
+1 with #Dablue, IIS 8.5 does not support the aspnet_regiis command anymore. For me, the issue is resolved by installing the "Asp.Net 3.5" or "Asp.Net 4.5" under
Web Server > Application Development.
#regeme - I was experiencing a similar problem when trying to run my own site and after a lot of digging I finally resolved it. In my case it was related to a *.json file trying to be loaded and no rules being initialized for it. If you look closer at your error it should give you an idea of what it is IIS is not loading.
After looking at the web inspector's network tab I was able to see which items were returning 404's they were all *.json.
I'm assuming since your error is returning a "content appears to be script and will not be served by the..." it is the same case.
My resolution:
A) It is possible you have already done this as it would throw another error, I'm just covering our bases.
Go to IIS HTTP Response Headers
create a mime-type ".json" "application/json"
B) **SEE NOTE
Go to Handler Mappings.
Set Request Path: to "*.json"
Executable: to "C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\asp.dll"
C) You may want to restart your service at this point again just to be safe this can be done in the IIS panel or cmd prompt.
Windows key + r
type: cmd and hit ctrl+shift+enter
type: iisreset and hit enter
*NOTE: This may save you a lot of headache, in my case I installed the 64 bit dll of asp.dll instead of the 32 bit version the folder for the 64-bit version is in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\inetsrv\asp.dll
IMPORTANT these file locations are in windows 8 and to my understanding are the same in windows 7 but this may not be the case for your OS double check.
Lastly if you are missing the asp.dll this is simply because you are missing windows features. Simply go to add/remove programs (Programs and Features)
Turn Windows features on or off
drop down Internet Information Services
drop down World Wide Web Services
check Application Development Features make sure it's not just a partial check and that all sub-items are being installed
On Windows 2012 and IIS 8.5 aspnet_regiis is no longer valid.
Instead, add the aspnet-4.5 rolefrom within server manager
Open server manager
in the left column select IIS
Scroll the right window until you see "Roles and Features"
Tasks select Add roles
Under "server roles" open "Web Server (iis)
open "Web Server"
open "application development"
Select "ASP.NET 4.5" (the "asp.net 4.5 extensibility" will not do it)
We got the same issue when hosting our MVC application on the web server. All the applications were working fine except the WCF service.
It was resolved, when we added a server role for .NET Framework 4.5 WCF service in Windows Server Manager.
Visit http://community.bamboosolutions.com/blogs/bambooteamblog/archive/2013/02/08/how-to-enable-and-use-net-framework-3-5-and-4-5-in-windows-server-2012.aspx
For me the issue was fixed by right click on Virtual directory-->convert to application
Check out this, in my case this solved the problem
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2019689
This might help you
In this case, a 404.17 error is returned if the *.aspx resource being requested from the site is handled in an Application pool that is not running in Classic Mode, is not 32 bit, or is not running the 2.0 version of the .NET Framework. In order for the resource to be served correctly in this example, all 3 pre-conditions must be met. Specifically, the application pool hosting this resource would have to be configured for Classic Mode, it would need to be configured to use the 2.0 version of the .NET Framework, and it would need to be set for 32 bit applications.
I had to create a new Web Site. There was some invalid configuration in my Website level that referenced my application's virtual directory directly.
For example, https://server/app gives me the 404.17 error but https://server/app-test works successfully. Swapping the two application names (using appcmd) caused the working app-test (now renamed to app) to begin failing. After creating a new Web Site named MyApp Web Site I was able to again create a new app, this time named app that worked successfully.
After extensive review of Default Web Site we cannot identify what configuration is causing 404.17 for apps named app and not alternatively named apps like app-test.
I believe the ultimate cause of this, is I did not have .NET Extensibility Services and ASP.NET 4.5 added through the server roles and features—During installation. Thus, the installer of my app failed to successfully configure Default Web Site correctly. For example, the created app pool incorrectly installed with v2.0 Integrated and not v4.0 Integrated. After installing the required roles and features I verified ISAPI (64 bit v4) was configured correctly, and the App Pool was appropriately configured for v4 Integrated. Unfortunately, I cannot identify any additional settings that would cause this issue—especially explicitly targeting the app virtual path.
This solved the issue for me. +1 to all who spoke a reasonable solution without having to pass through a 3 ring circus.
Turn on IIS Windows Features like these
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 & 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.
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.
In addition to above, if you need WCF support, you might need to run this:
c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.0\Windows Communication Foundation\ServiceModelReg.exe -i
Replace v3.0 to whatever your current framework version is.
I encountered this error from IIS 8.5 when trying to access a WCF service I had written. Turns out the server didn't have the WCF HTTP Activation features turned on. Checked the boxes and clicked through the wizard, iisreset, started working.
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.
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
should check out this option i suppose
I solved this problem by enabling WCF Services
Programs and Features > NET Framework 4.5 Services > WCF Services> 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
I know this is an old question, but I've just had this with a 3.5 application on my rebuilt Windows 8 machine and I was still getting this after aspnet_regiis -iru and it turned out the be ASP.NET 3.5 wasn't ticked within Application Development Features (not enough reputation to post an image).
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.
Register asp.net again....will solve the issue.
Go to Visual Studio Command Prompt, And register asp.net as windows\microsoft.net\Framework[.Net version num]\aspnet_regiis.exe -i
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 stumbled upon this question when I ran into the same issue. The root cause of my issue was an incorrectly-configured app pool. It was set for 2.0 inadvertently, when it needed to be set to 4.0. The answer at the following link helped me uncover this issue: http://forums.iis.net/t/1160143.aspx
For Windows 10/Framework 4.7, I had to turn on HTTP Activation through the following method:
Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off
Under .NET Framework 4.7 Advanced Services, expand WCF Services, select to check the HTTP Activation and whatever else you need when working with WCF
Click OK and let the install do its thing, then open an administrative command prompt and issue the IISRESET command
cmd -> right click -> Run as administrator
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -i
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
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.
I had the same problem. When I added Static content feaute for IIS, It works fine.
it could be multiple reason, in my case under Application pool->advance setting->Enable 32 bit application (should be true).It was set to false before.
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
i received this message for an application on iis 7.5 with a classic app pool assigned to .net 2.0. i needed to go to Handler Mappings and add two script maps, both were the same with except for the name. one name was svc-ISAPI-2.0-64, the other was svc-ISAPI-2.0. The request path was .svc. And the Executable was %SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll. i restarted iis and all was happy
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 the same issue, I just changed the target framework version on the website to the version it is developed in,Same in IIS. This solved my problem. Hope this helps...
Thank You
I'm deploying an ASP.NET application to Windows Server 2003 under IIS
IIS is serving html pages fine but I get a page not found when I try and serve IIS pages
You may need to "register" IIS for ASP.NET applications. As an administrator, run the command "%systemroot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis -i". In addition, you may need to convert your web site to an application through the IIS management console.
By default, IIS has ASP support disabled in IIS6.
A server running a member of the Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 family supports application server functionality, with Microsoft ASP.NET as an option that you can enable when configuring the application server role. To deploy ASP.NET Web applications to a production server, you must be sure to enable the ASP.NET and Internet Information Services (IIS) roles on the production server before you distribute the application.
See here for instructions to enable it:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/9fc367dd-5830-4ba3-a3c9-f84aa08edffa.mspx?mfr=true
Other possible reason could be Web Service Extensions, where ASP.NET version could have been disabled. My other post here explains steps to solve this.
Make sure the right .NET framework is installed properly
Make sure the ASP.NET extension is enabled
Under website properties, ASP.NET tab, make sure the right version is set.
After having this same issue and trying all of the above without any luck. We reinstalled SP2 for Windows 2003 and this resolved our issue. I too have seen this problem resolved a few times with the other answers. Most of the time just reinstalling .Net 2.0 resolves the issue but not this time.
For future reference, this could also be the issue:
IIS on a Windows Server 64-bit can only to run in either 32 or 64 bit mode.
In short you need to:
1) run adsutil.vbs to enable 32 bit asp.net apps on win 64
2) re-register IIS calling aspnet_regiis.exe
3) re-open IIS Manager, go into Web service extension list and ensure ASP.Net version {2/4.xxx} (32-bit) is set to Allowed
(You might need to do Steps 2 and 3 for both Framework 2.0 and 4.0 if you want to run asp.net apps on both versions)
Full details are in the following link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894435
Another future reference in case this is helpful to anyone who used a similar path to mine.
My back end for the ASP.NET app was MySql not Sql Server, which for me meant having a mysql connector, the reason my IIS was not serving the .aspx file is because on my development environment I was using a different version of the MySql connector than the one installed on my production environment, I updated the MySql connector on the production server to match the version Im using on the development environment and it worked great.
I'm trying to get Cruisecontrol.NET running with Server 2008/IIS7 and when I try and navigate to the dashboard 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.
I'm a bit lost in IIS7 so it could be something pretty straightforward. They (cc.net) do some funny stuff with http handlers in the web.config which may be related to the problem:
Anyone have any pointers?
Is the dashboard set up as an application in IIS?
I've not used IIS7, but I know in IIS6 you need to enable an application and assign it to an app pool before you can run ASPX code.
EDIT: This works in IIS6.
Open the IISAdmin tool on the web server. Expand the web sites folder. Find the virtual directory (directories?) for CruiseControl. Right-click on it and look at properties. On the directory tab, create a new application and give it a suitable name. Enable the application to execute "scripts only". Assign it to an application pool (you may want to create a new one just for this application -- consult the help documentation for this). You may also need to change the ASP.NET version You can do this on the ASP.NET tab -- choose either v1.1 or v2.0, whichever CruiseControl requires.
In Vista, go to Windows features in the control panel. there is a section there for IIS and you will find the scripting setting under the IIS 6 compatibility section
I just had this same issue when I installed CCNET 1.5 under Windows 7/IIS 7.5
You need to configure the app pool for the ccnet site. Under the Basic Settings for the application pool, set 'Managed pipeline mode' to 'Integrated'.
