EPiServer: Page cannot be found 404-error

An EPiServer site worked well on the local development machine but just returned a "404 - The page cannot be found" when placed on the test server. However the administration interface worked without any problem, but it was impossible to view the actuall pages on the site.

In the end it turned out to be the wildcard mapping in the IIS that was the problem. It was set to validate the existence of the physical files before processing them, thus rendering the friendly url rewriter useless.

Here's the blog post that helped us solve it:
