Error 3:   While run Register-SPWorkflowService or run new-wfscope, We got 404 error. This is fiddler trace shows 404 message directly from IIS

Solution 1: 

The 404 error shall come from Workflow Manager, but when the IIS is misconfigured, IIS will overwrite the 404 from workflow Manager which causes Workflow Manager not able to recognize the error.

Note:

Need to delete URL scan3.1 in IIS "ISAPI Filters" in order to register Workflow Manager to SharePoint and run Workflow Manager QuickTest Successfully. When URL scan is enabled -- caused 404 errors.
