Hi,

we have production environments that implement Google Map API.
When the user load the map we  check if the Google URL is accessible with http web request with method "HEAD" (Get only the header information -- no need to download any content), check a url with valid key  to see that it does not return server or protocol errors .
After 11.4 this is stop to work and all the users get error message.(error attached)
I search on the document when you release the last version and cannot see any reference that you remove from IIS the 'HEAD' method.
 
please see the code below that was run until 11.4.23:

 /// <summary>
            /// This method will check a url to see that it does not return server or protocol errors
            /// </summary>
            /// <param name="p_url">The path to check</param>
            /// <returns></returns>
            public object CheckMapConnectivity(string p_url)
            {

                try
                {
                    var request = WebRequest.Create(p_url) as HttpWebRequest;
                    if (request != null)
                    {
                        //set the timeout to 5 seconds to keep the user from waiting too long for the page to load
                        request.Timeout = 15000;
                        //Get only the header information -- no need to download any content
                        request.Method = "HEAD";
                     
                        var response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
                        if (response != null)
                        {
                            var statusCode = (int)response.StatusCode;
                            if (statusCode >= 100 && statusCode < 400) //Good requests
                            {
                                return "true";
                            }
                            if (statusCode >= 500 && statusCode <= 510) //Server Errors
                            {

                                if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(response.StatusDescription))
                                    return "Cannot make a Request to the provided url";
                                return "Error Number:" + statusCode + " - " + response.StatusDescription;
                            }
                        }
                    }
                    else //the request is null
                    {
                        throw (new WebException("Null Request"));

                    }
                }
                catch (WebException ex)
                {
                    if (ex.Message == "Null Request")
                    {
                        return "Cannot make a Request to the provided url";
                    }
                    return ex.Message;
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    return ex.Message;
                }
                return "false";
            }
