Hi all,

I'm trying to have aspnet_isapi.dll handle all requests for a virtual
directory. I have set up my web.config file and created the wildcard
mapping in IIS. However, all requests result in an IIS error of 404--
even pages that exist. Nothing appears to be reaching the
aspnet_isapi.dll. If I remove the wildcard mapping, things start working
again for existing pages.

I'm running Windows XP SP2 and IIS 5.1.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

OK, this is starting to get annoying. I am exactly following the
directions at the bottom of this page:

http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/URLRewriter.asp

But all I get is an IIS-generated 404. I have unchecked the check that
file exists. I have seen the httpmodule work correctly without the
wildcard mapping. I don't understand why IIS isn't passing it off...

Nobody? This seems so simple, yet I don't know where to go to figure out
where the problem is.

I have determined it is localized to one machine. Now I'm really at a loss.
