I've got a weird problem in IIS6, I expect it's something silly (I'm a bit rusty on the IIS front).

I can post to my default page fine if I include it in the url (http://localhost/wiki/wiki.asp?pg=Home), but if I post without (http://localhost/wiki/?pg=Home) I get a 405.

If I do a get with that second URL, it works ok.

I don't think it's an ASP error, because I've got 'Send detailed error message to client' selected.

(Note: this is IIS on a workstation)

Same here: HTTP 405 - Resource not allowed. Log file shows: 19:22:17 127.0.0.1 POST /Saml/ 405 – vitalik Dec 17 '10 at 20:04

This occurs with a post to a URL that doesn't have an exception, in IIS 5.1 (workstation). Here are more details and the solution: http://www.somacon.com/p126.php.

According to this KB article, that default setting was fixed in IIS6, which is why you see it on the workstation only.

Scott, I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt on this one. I won't have time in the next two days to check! Happy Christmas... – Benjol Dec 23 '10 at 23:27
