HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found
I copied a client site to our local server to setup a development environment. I copied all folders and files and the database. I updated the connection string, license and domain. I am able to get into site manager and CMS desk. I can browse to the homepage outside of CMS desk but all other pages give me a HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found error both inside and outside of CMS desk. Even the home page gives me a HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found error inside CMS desk.

RE:HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found
Problem solved. The client's site was setup to use extensionless URLs so, when I copied it to our server, I also needed to configure the website in IIS to accommodate this http://www.kentico.com/docs/devguide/configuration_of_custom_url_extensions.htm
