Web Application Problems (web.config errors) HTTP 500.19 with IIS7.5 and ASP.NET v2

Question

This is driving the whole team crazy. There must be some simple mis-configured part of IIS or our Web Server, but every time we try to run out ASP.NET Web Application on IIS

Answer 1

In my case, there was something wrong with the .NET Core Windows Hosting Bundle installation.

I had that installed and had restarted IIS using ("net stop was /y" and "net start w3svc") after installation, but I would get that 500.19 error with Error Code 0x8007000d and Config Source -1: 0:.

I managed to resolve the issue by repairing the .NET Core Windows Hosting Bundle installation and restarting IIS using the commands I mentioned above.

Hope this helps someone!
