asp.net mvc route clashing with physical path in IIS7
- by Andrew Bullock
I'm messing about with controller organisation and I've hit a problem.
If I have the following physical structure
/Home/HomeController.cs
/Home/Index.aspx
/Home/About.aspx
and I request the URI:
/Home/Index
I get a 403 Directory Listing Denied :(
(im using a custom IControllerFactory and IViewEngine to look in this non-default path)
Why is this happening? (I know the 403 is because its hitting the /Home folder, but why is it hitting the folder?)
Why doesn't the UrlRoutingModule rewrite the route and let the controller pick up the request?
Application_BeginRequest fires, but then it seems to pass control back to IIS to try and serve from the filesystem.
Is it the UrlRoutingModule that defaults to a physical path if it exists before rewriting?
Is there a way to make this work?
N.B. Please don't suggest relocating my controllers etc. I know this is an obvious option, but that isn't the question ;)
