How to allow aspx files

I have a website running Episerver CMS hosted in an Azure webapp.

My goal is to display a 404 page when a user goes to www.mysite.com/test.aspx, This works locally on my IIS site, but when deployed to Azure instead of a 404 I get a 500 exception:

System.Web.HttpException (0x80004005): The file '/test.aspx' does not exist. at System.Web.UI.Util.CheckVirtualFileExists(VirtualPath virtualPath
 at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultInternal(VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile, Boolean throwIfNotFound, Boolean ensureIsUpToDate

 at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)

Any recommendations?

Hi Rasmus,

Have you checked that your test.aspx file is actually deployed to your Azure web app (do you have 'build action: content' for your test.aspx)?

The exception says the file doesn't exist which would indicate that the aspx is not deployed.

do you have any custom errors configured for azure deploy?

Thanks for your suggestions.

Yes, the test.aspx file is deployed

Yes, there is custom errors configured.

I solved the problem by added a handler to 

<system.webServer>

<handlers>

<add name="AspxHandler" preCondition="integratedMode" verb="GET" path="*.aspx" type... />
