Question

I want to use URL such as /Image/sample.png
I create route, but it does not work, it say “The resource cannot be found”
What is the problem? (action GetImage is in controller home)

routes.MapRoute("Image",
  "Image/{id}",
  new { controller = "Home", action = "GetImage", id = "" });

Try

routes.MapRoute(“Image”,
“Image/{id}.{format}”,
new { controller = “Home”, action = “GetImage”, id = “”, format = format });

See http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2008/04/16/asp-net-mvc-source-refresh-preview.aspx

And make sure you don’t have some earlier route, e.g. /controller/action which is ‘stealing’ the request.
