Constantly receiving a Http404 when using IIS with dispatcher.

Hi

We are having problems getting any thing back from CQ when using a dispatcher & IIS7. The intention is to route requests from the route website on IIS to the CQ publishing instance. 

We have followed all the instructions on these pages:

• https://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/5-3/deploying/dispatcher.html#Microsoft Internet Information Server
• http://help-forums.adobe.com/content/adobeforums/en/experience-manager-forum/adobe-experience-manager.topic.html/forum__kzhz-hi_i_installedth.html

We were initially recieving nothing but http500 errors but after correcting the basic setup described in the second page we now get nothing but http404.

We have created a dispatcher.any which is definitely being read as changing it affects the behaviour of CQ.

This file is as follows:

# name of the dispatcher
/name "dev-server"
 
/farms
  {
    # first farm entry (label is not important, just for your convenience)
    /website 
    { 
    /homepage "/"
    
    /clientheaders
        {
        # List of headers that are passed on
        "*"
        }
        
    # List of URLs for this Web site
    # The following configuration causes Dispatcher to handle all requests:
    /virtualhosts
      {
      "*"
      }
    
    # The "/renders" property defines the URL to which Dispatcher sends requests to render a document. 
    /renders
      {
      # List of AEM instances that render the documents
      /publishRenderer
        {
        # hostname or IP of the renderer
        /hostname "127.0.0.1"
        # port of the renderer
        /port "4503"
        # connection timeout in milliseconds, "0" (default) waits indefinitely
        /timeout "0"
        }
      }
    /filter
      {
      # List of filters
      /0001
        {
        # If you want the Dispatcher to handle all files
        /glob "*"
        /type "allow"
        }
      }
    /cache
        {
        # Cache configuration
        /docroot "C:\\inetpub\\cache\\farms\\website"
        }
    }
  }

We have the following error appearing in our logs.

At this time we have no clue what to do and have been experimenting with this for over a day.

Please advise.
