Installing AppDynamics causing 404 response for every call. (.Net Web API)

I have installed AppDynamics in my windows environment to monitor my application (asp.net web api). I configured appdynamics and confirmed that it is sending data to the AppDynamics controller. However, after installing appDynamics I always get a 404 response for my web application (note: it works as expected before install and after uninstall). We did an iisreset after installation and configuration to no avail.

This is the only block of useful entries I found in the AgentLog, but haven't been able to track down what is happening:

With how easy this seems to install I'm sure it's some quirk with my Application, but I'm not sure where to look. Has anybody seen this? Any more ideas of where to look or possible misconfigurations?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

Is this issue happens only for a specific page or for all the screens in the application?  Did you notice any errors/warnings in the Winodws Event Viewer logs related to this issue?

Thanks,

Venu.
