MVC MapRoute gets 404 error

Question

I have created the following MapRoute function. And it's being called right from Application_Start() in Global.asax.

public static class RouteConfig
{
    public static void RegisterRoutes( RouteCollection routes )
    {
        routes.MapRoute(
                name: "TestMe",
                url: "TestMe.axd",
                defaults: new { controller = "Access", action = "SignOn" }
            );
    }
}

While I can access the specific controller if I use

http://localhost/TestSite/Access/SignOn,

I can't access it with this URL.

http://localhost/TestSite/TestMe.axd.

Can someone please point out what I am missing here?

Many thanks!!

It is trying to search TestMe.axd file on physical location.. check your IIS mappings to fix it. or else you might need to write HTTPHandler to avoid this error. — K D, Nov 11 '15 at 15:51
Perhaps you need to remove `.axd` handlers in your `Web.Config` — haim770, Nov 11 '15 at 15:52
I did remove them from , it was the first thing to do. But wasn't working still. By the way, the handler look like this: — Kyle, Nov 11 '15 at 15:57

Found some information from this link

I added

<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" />

into my Web.config and it's working now.
