IIS Express (8.0) x Handler Mappings!

Introduction

After installing the Visual Studio 2013 version, I had trouble with my web application. This application needs IIS configuration to mapping extensions for my "raills" view files. So, I expend some time to discovery that file: "applicationhost.config" (on path 'C:\Users\...\Documents\IISExpress\config') is the main responsible by web applications.

Using the Code

Pay attention to the two sections should therefore be modified as code below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>

  <system.applicationHost>
     
      <sites>

          <!--
                Here configure your site to correct applicationPool, 
                in this case i need the ClassicAppPool with Framework CLR 2.0.  
-->

          <site name="MySite.Web" id="2">
            <application path="/" applicationPool="Clr2ClassicAppPool">
              <virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="C:\VS2013\application\web\MySite" />
            </application>
            <bindings>
              <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:2000:localhost" />
            </bindings>
          </site>
          
      </sites>

  </system.applicationHost>
  
  <location path="" overrideMode="Allow">
        <system.webServer>
  
          <!--
                Here add the handlers mapping to both versions... 
          -->
            <handlers accessPolicy="Read, Script">
                <add name="MySite_x86" 
                path="*.gl" verb="GET,HEAD,POST,
                DEBUG" modules="IsapiModule" 
                scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll" 
                preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv2.0,bitness32" responseBufferLimit="0" />
                <add name="MySite_x64" path="*.gl" 
                verb="GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG" modules="IsapiModule" 
                scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll" 
                preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.0,bitness64" responseBufferLimit="0" />
            </handlers>
          
        </system.webServer>
    
    </location>
  
</configuration> 

That's all.

Points of Interest

IIS Express is much better than the built-in web server in Visual Studio 2010, but we have to make these changes for full functionality.
