MVC4 HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden

I have build a .net4.5 ASP.NET MVC4 web app which works fine locally (IIS Express & dev server) but once i deploy it to my web server it throws the 403 error. I have installed .Net 4.5RC on the server and even tried the aspnet_regiis -i bit that everyone recommended for their issues with previous versions of MVC/.Net but it did not help.

Any ideas?

EDIT: More info about the situation. The server is 32bit and I have 4 other MVC3 applications that work fine. It is just my MVC4 app that is not working.

Solution

  • Try 

    <system.webServer>
   <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/> 
 </system.webServer>
