Publishing ASP.net Applications to IIS 8

[Saldash]

Hi all,

 

I'm looking to see if anyone can help with an issue I'm having trying to publish to a local IIS server.

 

I have an application I have developed that, when I run it on my DEV workstation under IIS Express, it works perfectly.

But when I publish it, the application suffers Internal Server Errors and I'm not sure why.

 

I've checked the event log and solved an issue with the user the site is being run under, not having access to the app pool, but no further log entries are being generated.

 

Attempts to set debug flags and show the stack error after being published only show me an internal server error has occured in plain text, no 500 response or anything.

 

I'm publishing from a Win8.1 Enterprise workstation with Visual Studio 2013 Premium, to a local Win 2012 R2 Standard server.

 

Even publishing the stock Web Application project, it runs but trying to get it to DO anything returns an error.

So I'm stumped on what to try next.
