How do I disable HEAD request under IIS 6.0 other than using URLScan Tool?
Thanks in advance.
If it's for just one or a few extensions, see http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/4c840252-fab7-427e-a197-7facb6649106.mspx?mfr=true
In the same tab, you can specify the verbs.

Apache is downloading .aspx page instead of displaying them, Please let me know if someone has experienced same issue and got that fixed .
Apache does not support ASP.NET by default.
Either switch to IIS (Internet Information Services) on Windows or install an Apache module that allows ASP.NET support.
For ASP.NET support in Apache check out http://www.mono-project.com/
I have an ASP.NET web application (.NET 4.0) that has a few pages, one page with a silverlight application in it.
When I debug locally, the silverlight app works fine. When I deploy to my web server (Windows Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.5), the silverlight app will not display.
I get an exception in Application_Error saying the following files are missing:
clientaccesspolicy.xml
crossdomain.xml
I have found a few things on the net that aren't very helpful - they say they need to be in C:\inetpub\wwwroot. I don't have a 'Default' website in IIS7.5 and I don't have these folders?
Where can I find them and where should I put them?
Please help, as this is very urgent. Many thanks.
EDIT: So I have tried doing what the link in my comment suggests. Some more info: I have a Silverlight-enabled WCF service that the Silverlight app uses in order to work.
Do I need to do anything special when deploying my app with an .svc file? I remember having to enable access to .svc files back in IIS5, but I don't know if that's necessary in IIS 7.5?
Hope this extra info helps. If you need any code snippets etc, let me know.
Thanks.
Well, worked it out - a slightly embarrassing and annoying problem..............
The service reference in the Silverlight application had a client address of 'http://localhost......', which was added by Visual Studio when I added the service reference.
I found a blog post by Tim Heuer describing the issue. I had to set the client address to a relative one, using '../Service.svc' in the ServiceReferences.ClientConfig.
Very annoying, sort that out please Microsoft!!!
I know I've had this problem when I started working with Silverlight, but I can't for the life of me remember how to fix it.
I created a new RIA service application using the standard tutorial, added a table from the database and added a grid to display the results. Works great. Now I pull open the Web properties and change the web project to "use local IIS Web server". Suddenly the application will load up and give me the friendly "NotFound" error.
Please, someone remind me what I'm missing here.
I ran into this problem recently, and resolved it with help from this post on the silverlight.net forums.
Basically, I had Windows authentication and annonymous access enabled at the same time, and I need to disable windows authentication and restart IIS.

Not sure what the missing part is but I always start with Fiddler as will show the messages going across the wire. The actual messages can contains far more useful that the browser is hiding from the Silverlight plugin
I have created a basic site using ASP.NET routing according to Mike Ormond's example "Using ASP.NET routing Independent of MVC". This works fine on my local machine running the built-in web server.
However, when I deploy it to my server (Windows Server 2003, IIS 6, ASP.NET 3.5 SP1) it just shows a 404 error.
I have read somewhere that I am meant to set up wildcard routing. How can I do this?
What other configuration changes needs to be done to make it work on my server?
You will find some good information on Steve Sanderson’s blog post "Deploying ASP.NET MVC to IIS 6."
On the server, open IIS:
Right-click on the site/virtual directory, select properties
Goto the Home Directory/Virtual Directory tab, click Configuration (near the bottom)
Near the bottom again, click the insert button
Enter C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll
Alternate: Enter C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll for ASP.NET 4.0
Uncheck the "Verify that file exists" button, click Okay and close all the dialogues
You can find the "official" discussion of wildcard mappings on TechNet here but I like Phil Haack's walkthrough that you can find here. Don't worry about the fact that it's a discussion of setting up ASP.NET MVC, just look for the section titled "IIS6 Extension-less URLs" - that set up applies to both MVC and using routing with a classic web form application.
Under IIS 6 64 bit, make sure that the path under 4.) points to
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll
Url rewriting can help you to solve the problem. I've implemented solution allowing to deploy MVC application at any IIS version even when virtual hosting is used.

There is a strange problem I am facing, if any of you might have seen before.
I have freshly install OS (Windows 2003 SP2) and just have configured IIS on it and on the default site,the static content say hello.htm is working fine.But any dynamic content like hello.asp (classic asp) or hello.aspx (asp.net) is not working.
If I telnet and issue HTTP headers manually for static content it works but for dynamic content IIS is basically forcefully closing the connection.
There's nothing in event logs.
Any clues?
Stupid question, but do you have ASP.Net enabled in add/remove programs in and IIS itself? I don't think that would cause it to close the connection, but it is a common "gotcha" along with registering ASP.Net.
Look under Web Service Extensions in IIS.
Is ASP.NET marked "enabled"? Do you see it? If not, do a aspnet_regiis -i from your %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\WHATEVERVERSION\ directory on the command line, and you will.
Then re-check Web Service Extensions and make sure it is enabled.
