Can't get ELMAH to works with ASP.NET MVC2 on IIS7.5

Question

Hello, I try to use ELMAH on my ASP.NET MVC2 application, it works fine on the test server (Casini x86) while using the x86 version, but when I deploy it on the production server with the x86_64 version, I get a 404 error when I try to access "elmah.axd" and no errors are logged on IIS (but they are logged in Casini)

Here is my Web.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The URL used on the production server is: http://xxxx/IronViperWebInterface/elmah.axd

and on Casini : http://localhost:xxxx/elmah.axd

I tried to change

<add verb="POST,GET,HEAD" path="elmah.axd" type="Elmah.ErrorLogPageFactory, Elmah" />

to

<add verb="POST,GET,HEAD" path="IronViperWebInterface/elmah.axd" type="Elmah.ErrorLogPageFactory, Elmah" />

but that don't change anything.

I can't find the problem..

Any idea please ?

Thank you
