[Solved] ScriptRegistrar Trouble Accessing .axd

[Nabil Shuhaiber]

I am having trouble accessing the /asset.axd?id=LgIAAB-LCAAAAAAABADtvQdgHEmWJSYvbcp7f0r1Stf.... url generated by script registrar (HTTP 404). I am using IIS 5 set up to use ASP.Net MVC using wildcard mapping. Do I need to set up a handler in the web.config?

Thanks
Nabil

Hello Nabil Shuhaiber,

Make sure you have the following line in <system.web><httpHandler> in your web.config:

<add verb="GET,HEAD" path="asset.axd" validate="false" type="Telerik.Web.Mvc.WebAssetHttpHandler, Telerik.Web.Mvc"/>

It registers the asset.axd HTTP handler which is required to serve compressed and grouped resources (JavaScript and CSS).

All the best,

Hi,
Although I have done what is suggested below but I still get Page Not Found for the compressed axd file. Locally there is no issue, its just when I deploy it to IIS7.

Thanks.

hi, asset.axd is fine on the personal web server, but on IIS server i get a 404. i'm using the MVC2 window control, and i think it's IIS 7.5 now.
i need to get it to work on IIS because i use a test SSL cert that does not work on pers web serv and my site's css and everything else works off both a virtual root and off the server root, except for this handler.

what's the trick?

loving to code the server-side again :) thanks

Hi garevalo,

 Please check this help topic and verify that the asset.axd HTTP handler is correctly registered in your web.config file. Have in mind that there is a difference if you are using Visual Studio Web Server and IIS7.
