What are the configuration file settings to enable webservices on IIS 7.0 in classic mode? The site has to be in a classic mode application pool because the Report Viewer controls crash when running in Integrated Mode. However in a classic mode application pool, webservices produce the following error message:

The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.

•If you want to serve this content as a static file, add an explicit MIME map

EDIT - Additional Error Message Info:

HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found
Module: StaticFileModule
Notification: ExecuteRequestHandler
Handler: StaticFile
Error Code: 0x80070032

Note: This particular instance of the application will be running in a customers account on a shared hosting enviroment so access to IIS UI is not/will not be available. Specifically seeking configuration file adjustments.
