ASP.NET MVC3 and Windows Auth on IIS keeps redirecting to /Account/Login

Question

I know this is a super old post. But I just ran across this after going through a tutorial on upgrading from MVC 4 to MVC 5. So I'm throwing it on just in case anyone else makes the mistake I did. My issue ended up being that I accidently added 'Microsoft.AspNet.WebPages.WebData' to my project while upgrading my references.

Running "Uninstall-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebPages.WebData" restored my authentication to it's previous glory.
