MVC Views returning 404 in IIS 7.5

Question

I've been trying to figure out why my views are returning 404 in my staging environment, but not my development environment.

• Windows Server 2008 R2
• IIS 7.5
• MVC 2 Beta definitely installed.

The first Route entry in my Global.asax is as follows:

        routes.MapRoute(
            "FindStore",
            "FindStore",
            new { controller = "FindStore", action = "Index" });

All views are definitely present and in the proper directories.

Basically if I go to http://StagingServer/FindStore I get a 404 error. Every other answer I've seen has to do with IIS 6. which I'm not running.

Answer 1

I am not sure if this will help but there was an issue reported on Stack Overflow that uses both technologies and involves a similar problem: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1852251/getting-an-asp-mvc2-vs2010-application-to-work-in-iis-7-5

I would check it out and see if it helps.

Answer 2

It ended up being because my App Pool was running in Classic mode.
