Why is Windows throwing 404.4 errors for images?

  • 772

I just finished installing 2008 on a new server and enabled PHP support thru the Web PI Installer. I'm having two issues that I can't seem to get past.

I see modules, etc. but there doesn't appear to be a mapping for static files.

  • GIF and PNG files are returning 404.4 errors (see below)
  • Default files are configured but are not being returned (ex: index.php)

404.4 error

Mappings

windows-server-2008 iis-7

    I've typically seen this when IIS isn't setup to serve static content. You need to add the Static Content role services when configuring the IIS role:

    enter image description here

    Check that, proceed to the end of the wizard, and that should be it. This will set up all appropriate handlers, etc.
