Asp.net-mvc – Deploy asp.net mvc beta to iis 6 causing 404’s

Here's what I found out and what worked for me: Deploy ASP.NET MVC App on Windows XP (IIS 5.1)

Edit:

For the latest release of ASP.NET MVC, replace .mvc with a wildcard .* Extension textbox in the Add/Edit Application Extension mapping.

Found the answer myself.

Richard Dingwall has an excellent post going through various strategies. I particularly like the FilterAttribute solution. I'm not a fan of throwing exceptions around willy nilly, so i'll see if i can improve on that :)

For the global.asax, just add this code as your last route to register:

routes.MapRoute(
    "404-PageNotFound",
    "{*url}",
    new { controller = "StaticContent", action = "PageNotFound" }
    );
