How to have a route in ASP.NET MVC with a file extension that would be blocked by request filtering

I have a route that basically looks like this:

Foo/{id}/Files/{*path}

I want it to match a URL such as:

http://mysite/Foo/Bar/Files/Baz.cs

However, I get an HTTP 404.7 error that says "The request filtering module is configured to deny the file extension." I can remove the file extension from request filtering by modifying web.config, but I don't want my source code to be viewable. How should I set this up?

If the paths to the files don't match with the urls you want to have than you can do the following:

  1. mark the folder where you keep your source files as denied for everyone in the web.config (example for the /SourceCode dir)

  2. allow the .cs extension in the request filtering module

The only way you might have possibility to get it working is through relaxedUrlToFileSystemMapping setting in ASP.NET 4.0. You can read more here:
