title: HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found (.Net 4)
body: <p>I've just got a new server setup on Windows 2008 Web edition. I'm trying to set the first asp.net 4 application up on it but am having nothing but problems. </p>
  
  <p>The latest is that I'm getting the 404.17 error, which says "the requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.". </p>
  
  <p>I've done a lot of research on google but most suggestions seem to be to run aspnet_regiis -i to install asp.net 4. I've done this several times both on the Framework and Framework64 folders, but with no success. </p>
  
  <p>I tried changing from the default application pool to a .net4 application pool, which appeared  to work at first and I instead got a server error to do with permissions. I fixed that, and immediately the 404.17 error returned. </p>
  
  <p>Other suggestions I've read say to go into the "turn windows features on and off" and make sure .net 4 is selected there under IIS. However on this server clicking "turn windows features on and off" takes me to the standard windows 2008 server manager. I click "add features" there, and only ".NET Framework 3.0 Features (Installed)" is listed and selected. .NET 4 isn't shown there, yet it is selectable through the application pools. </p>
  
  <p>What else can I try to get the website running as I'm at a complete loss now. Its annoying because my old server was easy to manage - I did it all through the server itself without a control panel (Windows 2003), now on my new server I have to manage most of it through Plesk because there is no dns. </p>
  
  <p>Any help would be much appreciated. </p>
