c# - How to route a .aspx page in asp.net mvc 3 project?

Question

I have a .aspx page in the following path:

Areas/Management/Views/Ticket/Report.aspx

I want to route that to the following path in my browser:

http://localhost/Reports/Tickets

How can i do that?

I try this:

routes.MapRoute(
    "Tickets", // Route name
    "Areas/Management/Views/Ticket/Report.aspx", // Original URL
    new { controller = "Reports", action = "Tickets" } // New URL 
);

But i got the 404 error.

What i'm doing wrong?

Obs: I put that before the Default route.

If you are trying to utilise web forms in a MVC project then I would move your .aspx out of the views folder, as it isn't really a view, so something like WebForms/Tickets/Report.aspx.

In web forms you map a route by calling the MapPageRoute method.

routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapPageRoute("Tickets", "Reports/Tickets", "~/WebForms/Tickets/Report.aspx");
routes.MapRoute("Default", "{controller}/{action}/{id}", new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional });

You'll need to put that before the default MVC route.
