IIS returns Bad Request (400) error [modified]

[progan]

Hi all! I have such problem with IIS 6.0 configuration. I have a web site with HttpHandler inherited class which catch all requests. When I publish this site on IIS 6.0 and try to launch this application by entering "http://mydomain.com/test-www;par@act=value&Parameter=mypar" my site doesn't catch this request and IIS returns Bad Request (400) error May be RFC 1738 Url Standard works here and IIS can't obtain such requests. But may be there is a way to solve this problem Thank you very much in advance -- modified at 4:42 Thursday 29th November, 2007

IIS 6 has a wildcard mapping setting that is designed specifically to process requests that don't map to a specific file (i.e. a request with no file extension). When you configure your web site/app, click on the configuration button under the application settings. Under the application mappings, you should see a wildcard mappings section as well. Map the wildcard request to the aspnet_isapi.dll and make sure that it doesn't require that the file exist. That should solve your problem.
