Failed to load asmx file?

Question

I am using the gleamtech filevistacontrol for a back-end of a website. When i load the page which contains the control i get an error that a language file could not be found.

I get an 404 response when calling the webservice. The application is running on a windows server 2008. On my development machine the application is running without problems. I got the filevista control running in another application but this is running on a windows server 2003 machine.

Things i have tried: 1. Verified all that all files are there and that the permissions are set correctly

1. I added the following line in my web.config in the system.web section.

   <webServices>
       <protocols>
           <add name="HttpPost"/>
       </protocols>
   </webServices>
   

2. I started from scratch with deploying the application

3. I tried two different versions of the filevistacontrol

My guess is that is has something to do with the asmx that couldn't be loaded but i am out of options..

Answer 1

I finally got it solved. The handler mapping configuration in IIS 7.5 was wrong... the mapping for *.asmx was set to local. Right click --> Revert to parent solved the problem.
