  custom HttpHandler works on cassini / localhost but not with IIS 7.5

  Feb 16, 2013 03:24 PM|LINK

  We have a custom IHttpHandler/Factory implementation that works on localhost/Cassini.  Deployed to IIS and it when trying to invoke we get 404's.  Here is pertitent web.config parts.

  <location path="FederationMetadata.xml">
  <system.web>
  <authorization>
  <allow users="*" />
  </authorization>
  </system.web>
  </location>

  <system.web>

  .

  .

  <httpHandlers>

  <add verb="GET" path="FederationMetadata.xml" type="Castle.Utils.Misc.Impl.WindsorHttpHandlerFactory, Castle.Utils.Misc.Impl" />
  </httpHandlers>
  </system.web>

  <system.webServer>

  .

  .

  <handlers>

  <add name="HandlerFactory" path="FederationMetadata.xml" verb="GET" type="Castle.Utils.Misc.Impl.WindsorHttpHandlerFactory, Castle.Utils.Misc.Impl" resourceType="File" requireAccess="Script" />
  </handlers>
  </system.webServer>

  Here is our MVC route registration code:

  public void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
  {
  routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
  routes.IgnoreRoute("FederationMetadata.xml"); //prevent MVC from interferring with our custom http handler

  routes.MapRoute(
  "Default", // Route name
  "{controller}/{action}" // URL with parameters
  );

  }

  WebApp=ASP.NET MVC 4.5

  IIS WebServer=Windows 2008R2

  Please advise.

  thanks
