He just meant that it won't help you debug the other system all that much to get another working, when the problem is pretty specifically that IIS instance.

Which is true, IIS is different on every server in its lies and buggy behavior. A few just work, most have major issues when it comes to handling site vs. global mappings and require repeated deletion and addition of configuration until the bugginess is overcome.

Whether rewriting it as a native .NET API filter would be any better isn't clear, that would only help if we can avoid the script mapping entirely since that's the step that constantly doesn't take.
