ASP 4.0 IIS HTTP 404

I just installed .NET 4.0 on my Win 2003 Server running IIS. I didn't have any problems using ASP.NET 2.0 built websites, but now if I set the ASP.NET version to 4.0 and I deploy a website built using vs2010, I get HTTP 400 http://localhost/mysite/Default.aspx homepage. I have an.xml file in the same folder and browsing to that shows its content as it should, no HTTP 400 error. I checked .aspx extensions in IIS configuration/Mappings and the application extension for aspx is set to c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll with verbs set to 'All'. The same issue (http 400) appears for wcf service .svc extension. I can browse though to an .xml document in the same virtual directory. What might be going on?

You may try setting the HTTP runtime's requestPathInvalidChars attribute (if there are any bad characters in your URL according to ASP.NET 4): <httpRuntime requestPathInvalidChars="" />

It could have considered the : as bad (are you sure the address was not localhost:port?).

Edit: httpRuntime Element (the new attribute is not listed, yet, but it shows where you should put it in the web.config).
