Actually, vista home basic does not have static-content, it only has enough IIS functionality to support wcf and cannot be used as a traditional web-server.

Make sure you have 'Static Content' component installed on your machine. Open 'Turn Windows Features On or Off' and check Internet Information Services->World Wide Web Services->Common Http Features->Static Content is checked. When you say no UI, did you selectively chose not to install IIS Management Console?

IIS7 MapRequestHandler

Hi,

I am new to IIS7.

I have got one laptop with Windows Vista Home Basic (OEM). I enabled IIS7 from Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features On or Off.

As there is no UI I can only use appcmd command line. I kept a html file Default.htm in c:\inetpub\wwwroot. Then when I try to open the site http://localhost/Default.htm I get following error

HTTP Error 404.4 - Not Found
Description: The resource you are looking for does not have a handler associated with it.

Error Code: 0x80070002

Notification: MapRequestHandler

Module: IIS Web Core

Requested URL: http://localhost:80/vdir1/default.htm

Physical Path: C:\Websites\vdir1\default.htm

Logon User: Anonymous

Logon Method: Anonymous

Handler: Not yet determined

Most likely causes:

The file extension for the requested URL does not have a handler configured to process the request on the Web server.

Then I created virtual folder using appcmd, kept the same html file, Still I get the same error.

My question is How I can assign request handler for htm, aspx etc., files using appcmd command.

With regards
