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
Well, it tells you what is wrong. The
system.webServer/Handlers
section has been locked somewhere else, meaning that you can not override it in theweb.config
file at the current level (probably the web site).Either remove:
from your
web.config
fileOr find out where it has been locked and change it.
It is probably locked in the
applicationHost.config
file. It can be found here:%windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\
. Open it with a text editor and look for a line likeChange the
overrideModeDefault
attribute to AllowAlternatively, you can use
appcmd.exe
to unlock the section for a specific site or application, like this:Where "WebSiteName" is the name of the web site and "/app" is the path to your application. To unlock it for the entire web site:
