asp.net - How do I fix 404.17 error on Win Server 2k8 and IIS7

Question

I've setup a new .net 2.0 website on IIS 7 under Win Server 2k8 and when browsing to a page it gives me a 404.17 error, claiming that the file (default.aspx in this case) appears to be a script but is being handled by the static file handler. It SOUNDS like the module mappings for ASP.Net got messed up, but they look fine in the configurations. Does anyone have a suggestion for correcting this error?

Answer 1

I had this problem on IIS6 one time when somehow the ASP.NET ISAPI stuff was broke.

Running

%windir%Microsoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727aspnet_regiis.exe -i 

to recreate the settings took care of it.
