title: Got HTTP Error 404.17 while setting up asp.net project onto IIS 8.0
body: <p>I am trying to set up an existing asp.net application onto IIS 8.0 on my windows 8 machine and it giving me the following error message.</p>
  
  <pre><code>HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found
  The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I googled for a while and trying to solve this problem with several solutions such as registering asp.net manually. However,it is still not working.
  Most of the solutions are for IIS 7.5 and the problem is the same or not. </p>
  
  <p>Any idea!
  really appreciate.</p>
