Answer 1

for those on IIS7+ who keep struggling with this issue even with the suggested solution: you also need to wrap system.webServer tag:

<location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
  <system.web>
    <!-- ... -->
  </system.web>
</location>

<location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
  <system.webServer>
    <!-- ... -->
  </system.webServer>
</location>

The IgnoreRoute you have provided looks fine. I tested it with Phil Haack's Route Debugger found here It's probably a typo, but did you add this to global.aspx.cs or global.asax.cs
