Best Answer
We had the same error on a brand new server.
The reason was not the default IIS security policy, stored in
applicationHost.config
, as suggested by the other answer (although we checked that). The reason was that we installed IIS without support for ASP.NET (an ASP.NET 4.5 role)!When we installed the missing support for ASP.NET, our application just started with no changes in configuration at all.
Conclusion:
Double check that you have ASP.NET role installed along with IIS if you get this error.
To install the ASP.NET role in Windows Server:
Web Server (IIS)
->Web Server
->Application Development
To install the ASP.NET role in a Windows client:
Internet Information Services
->World Wide Web Services
->Application Development Features
