You can also add:

to your web.config file and use the .ashx extension that is already registered instead of wgx.

Re: Registering the .WGX extension on IIS7

I just struggled with this for a while and could not get it to work by adding a Script Map.

I did get it to work by adding a Managed Handler:

Request Path: *.WGX

Type: Gizmox.WebGUI.Server.Router,Gizmox.WebGUI.Server

Name: I used VWG

Working fine now.

Please would someone explain in detail how to get .wgx running under IIS7 on Windows Server 2008?

I am seeing quite a few different options in the forums, and not sure which is right. Never mind that I cannot get any of them to work.

Is registering managed handlers in web.config the correct route? If so, please would someone provide a sample.

I am using the latest version of VWG under .NET 3.5.

TIA
