HTTP Error 404.7 - Not Found... The request filtering module is configured to deny...

  1. Hey everyone,
    I need help please... I am trying to connect a Windows application to a webservice that I have put up on my webspace. And in the application, I try to "Add a Web Reference" but instead of displaying the files, I get the following error message:

    "HTTP Error 404.7 - Not Found
    The request filtering module is configured to deny the file extension"

    Can anyone advice me on what I am doing wrong or what I can do to resolve this?

    Thanks

    This is really strange.

    What is the URL to the asmx?
     

  5. Thanks Bruce... I figured what I was doing wrong:

    I was searching for a "vsdisco" file instead of an "asmx" file.

    Thanks for your support.
