Script not served by static file handler on IIS7.5

I've just tried to deploy my first web application to IIS on my Windows 7 Home Premium notebook. After creating the application, I had to change to the Classic App Pool, then set that pool for framework 4.0. Now I get the following error:

HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.

The requested URL is http://localhost:80/pvmms/default.aspx

I'm afraid extensive Googling has yielded nothing clear or definite enough for me to work with and as usual I've turned to the experts.

EDIT: I suspect this is because there are no framework 4.0 handler mappings for .aspx files. However, aspnet_regiis even gives my admin user the finger and says I need admin rights to run it.

EDIT #2: I registered all the frameworks (2 & 4, 32 and 64) and all now works. I found this by manually adding a script map for .aspx to aspnet_isapi and voila. I don't understand why the installation of the framework doesn't do this, unless my memory fails me and I only enabled IIS after installing VS.

In addition to above, if you need WCF support, you might need to run this:

c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.0\Windows Communication Foundation\ServiceModelReg.exe -i

Replace v3.0 to whatever your current framework version is.

For Windows 10/Framework 4.7, I had to turn on HTTP Activation through the following method:

  1. Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off
  2. Under .NET Framework 4.7 Advanced Services, expand WCF Services, select to check the HTTP Activation and whatever else you need when working with WCF
  3. Click OK and let the install do its thing, then open an administrative command prompt and issue the IISRESET command

it could be multiple reason, in my case under Application pool->advance setting->Enable 32 bit application (should be true).It was set to false before.
