Clickonce deploy problem with IIS 7

Question

I have a "ClickOnce" application that deploys without any problems from a Win2K3 server and IIS 6.

But the same application fails to be deployed from a Windows Server 2008/IIS7, I receive a 404 file not found (on a .config file and not on one of the manifest files) during the installation on a client machine.

In the IIS the mime types .application, .deploy and .manifest are declared correctly, the virtual folder has read & script only execution permissions and it uses the classic .NET AppPool.

What I’m missing?

Answer 1

After doing some research I found this article and found that the .config file extension didn't have permissions. I followed the instructions on the article and everything work fine.
