Failed to map the path 'MyAppName/App_GlobalResources' when running ASP.NET page in IIS - iis

I get the error "Failed to map the path 'MyAppName/App_GlobalResources'", where MyAppName is the name registered in IIS. I ran aspnet_regiis -i,and also removed .NET 3.5 and reinstalled it since the IIS had been installed later. However, the moment i run a aspx page, this is the error i get.
What does this error really mean , and what is the way out of it ?
Thanks for any info.

I fixed it as advised in similar problems faced by others
"In RegEdit, give ASPNET account full access to:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface{70B51430-B6CA-11D0-B9B9-00A0C922E750}"

If you are using windows 7 then right click on visual studio and run as administrator. It will solve your problem.

IIS Web Platform Installer Error: 'doctype' is an unexpected token. The expected token is 'DOCTYPE'. Line 1, position 3

I've just created a new IIS website on a Windows Server 2008 in order to use it to deploy a new website.
The website is still empty.
If I try to open IIS Web Platform Installer under Management Tools, I get stuck on the error:
'doctype' is an unexpected token. The expected token is 'DOCTYPE'.
Line 1, position 3.
After closing the error, the Web platform Installer closes.
Do anyone know how to solve it?
Let me know in the comments if you need any other info or technical data, I have really no idea on how can I troubleshoot this
I had the same issue. However, I cannot uninstall IIS completely as I have many sites on my IIS running.
What I did was, I tried to install an IIS module which was not there. for eg, I chose CORS module.
You can get it from here https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/iis-cors-module
Once I tried installing, WPI automatically uninstalled and reinstalled during the process and it resolved the issue.
Hope it helps!
As mentioned by #qbik Simply updating the Web platform installer fixed the issue. You can download the latest at this time from here.
Done, here's how I solved.
This issue seems to be strictly related to an old configuration of this server, so I had to manually reset it. If you face this issue, these following steps should work fine:
First of all, I had to remove the IIS role functionality from
Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Window Features on or
off > Roles.
Then, I restarted the server and added again the IIS role
functionality (make sure to check all of the asp net
functionalities).
After that, I restarted the server (again) and I have reinstalled: 1) DotNetCore.2.0.7-WindowsHosting (you've got to find the installer online, make sure to download the last version. 2.0.7 was the last when I made this question so on 25/05/2018) 2) Web platform Installer from here.
Executing web platform installer from all program inside start menu worked fine.
Hope it will be helpful

HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error using visual studio 2013

I am using visual studio 2013. I am trying to run a web app on my browser and I get the following error.
I have searched this forum but is not working. I was running the same web app yesterday and it worked fine.Today it does not.
Thank you for your help
I too faced this problem when my Windows was upgraded.
Doing this fixed the issue on my computer. Also note that you have to select the Server node on the left side panel. (NOT a web site).
Follow the instructions in the screenshots and then
Uncheck the www server checkbox.
Restart the IIS and it worked on my machine!
I was also facing similar issue from last 2-3 days. I am using VS2013 professional for building MVC application. All of sudden, any web application created on VS2013 started giving this kind of error. I tried reinstalling IIS, VS2013; but it does not worked for me.
During event logs checks, I found this error message-
"FailedRequestTracing module detected invalid configuration on path 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST'. Trace provider or tracing area name 'WWW Server' is not recognized. Check the section for currently supported list or providers and areas. No logs will be generated until this condition is corrected. The problem happened at least 1 times in the last 5 minutes. The data is the error."
In applicationhost.config file, I did found below tag-
<add provider="WWW Server" areas="Authentication,Security,Filter,StaticFile,CGI,Compression,Cache,RequestNotifications,Module,FastCGI,WebSocket,Rewrite,RequestRouting,iisnode" verbosity="Verbose" />
I removed this tag from applicationhost.config file located under C:\Users\\My Documents\IISExpress\config path on windows 7 machine.
Now my all application started running fine from VS2013 with IISexpress.
See if this helps.
Cheers

IIS not working after upgrade to Windows 10 Pro from Windows 7 Unlimited

Today I upgraded my windows 7 ultimate to windows 10 pro. Every thing seems to work fine. But the localhost is now throwing error : HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.
I checked IIS, it is running. I checked the version of IIS from IIS Manager, it is showing Version 10.0.10240.16384.
I test my sites on localhost.
Before upgrade, in windows 7 ultimate it was working fine. I also checked "Turn windows feature on or off" and found that IIS is installed properly.
Please guide me.
Thanks Joe Raio for providing the hint. I checked the event log and found that rewrite.dll was causing error. I uninstalled IIS URL rewrite extension and the problem is gone. Now everything is working as before, classic asp, php, everything.
Please try this solution
Go to the Application Pool ...
Advanced Settings ...
Process Model ...
Identity ...
Set it to "LocalSystem"

Windows 8.1 / Windows 10 breaks my ASP.NET / IIS : "Service unavailable"

With Windows 8.1 finally released to MSDN/Technet today I came across the following issue running my ASP.NET application after doing an in place upgrade with Win 8.1 RTM:
Service Unavailable
HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.
The AppPool has died and shows a status of Stopped
The IIS log has nothing
There's a clue is in the Windows Application log which contains this error
The Module DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\rewrite.dll failed to load. The data is the error.
How can I recover my IIS to make it work again?
It looks like a simple uninstall and re-install of the rewrite module will do the trick.
Edit: As others have said - try a repair first - if it works then that should be faster.
It doesn't look like the Microsoft Web Platform Installer is able to uninstall it so just go to Programs and Features to uninstall it.
You'll find it listed as IIS URL Rewrite Module 2 and just click the Uninstall button on top.
Then reinstall it from here:
http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite
Make sure your App Pool is started - or just restart IIS and it should all work again.
Edit: 8/30/16 : A similar but unrelated error can occur if you have the 'new' .NET core installed and update to Win 10 Anniversary edition. See here: https://github.com/aspnet/Home/issues/1583 - Running a repair on VS 2015 Tooling Preview should fix it. Wanted to add it here since the errors are very similar to this answer.
I got this Event Log error after updating Win8.1 to Win10. To fix, go to the Control Panel -> Programs and Features, locate IIS URL Rewrite Module 2, right click and select Repair (it's quick). Next, restart your stopped AppPool(s). Should be OK now.
No need to uninstall nor reinstall.

Don't need to uninstall. Just do a Repair instead, and it will works.
For some weird reasons, the only solution for me was to install previous version of the module, from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7435
I just ran in to this issue after an update. All of the app pools where stopped!
Starting them resolved the issue.
I struggled with similar issues last night.
It started out with a complaint about missing redirect.dll. After installing IIS' Redirect feature, that log message disappeared and all I was left with was a bunch of error messages from WAS. It tried starting my application pool five times until giving up.
A listener channel for protocol 'http' in worker process '120' serving
application pool 'my app pool' reported a listener channel failure.
The data field contains the error number.
The error code was "8007007E" (File not found according to google).
I then installed ProcMon from sysinternals.com and every time the w3wp process complained about "NAME NOT FOUND" right before terminating, I googled and installed the corresponding IIS feature. I repeated this until I had installed them all and got everything working again.
Installing everything is not a good solution, but I do not have time to investigate deeper right now.
I came across similar symptoms after changing my domain password. I had to also reset my password in my (hard coded!) App Pool settings on my dev box.
I had a similar issue with "httpplatformhandler.dll failed to load". Again the solution was to download the appropriate httpplatformhandler install msi from http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/httpplatformhandler and then run a repair.
The Repair worked for me after updating to W10 Insider Preview 160826-1902
I encountered the same problem in Windows Server 2012 R2. After I update Windows Updates to newest, it works.

Debugger can't connect when starting local azure project

Ok, first of; here's what I did:
Install AZURE tools
Reboot
Start Visual Studio - new Azure project
Add web role (asp.net MVC 4 beta web role)
Hit F5 (debug)
It starts up the storage emulator and the compute emulator and starts to load in runtimes, and then I get a popup saying that the debugger couldn't connect.
Then after some googeling I'm suggested to try to run the application without running the debugger to see if I can acces the application. When I do I get this:
So I figure that IIS does not have permissions to access some file/directory. So I go to IIS and look up the application pool running the app, and it tells me that the identity in use is NetworkService, then I go give NetworkService full permissions to the entirety of the folder IIS has set for the application (which also happens to be the path to the project dir). Still I get the same error. Now I'm more or less out of ideas, but I try one last thing, which is to also give IUSR full permissions to the same dir, but this did not help either.
How can I go about resolving this problem? I haven't tried actually launching my project to Azure yet, cause if I can't even get it to work in development I don't see much point. Any and all help would be appreciated.
I ran into the same error today after uninstalling .NET 4.5/Visual Studio 11 Dev Preview, then installing ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta (this is before Feb 29th when the updated VS 2011 Preview drops).
Since I uninstalled .net 4.5, you just need to do an "aspnet_regiis -i" to ensure the .net framework (4.0) is set up with IIS 7.x this worked for me.
Edit: This will work if you uninstall/then manually install Visual Studio 2012 RTM as well.
I had a similar error yesterday. For me the problem was that the output of the build was empty in the target folder.
I tried to answer a similar question https://stackoverflow.com/a/9411422/182371:
Check %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\dftmp\IISConfiguratorLogs\IISConfigurator.log
file for the error messages. Mode details at
https://stackoverflow.com/a/8432621/182371
Make sure that the build output of your project is not empty. You can do this by going to IIS, find the site with the name similar to
'deployment16(6).WindowsAzureProject2.WebApplication3_IN_0', right
click --> Explore.... Make sure that this folder is not empty and
contains all the files required to start a web project successfully.
As for the Access Denied error:
it could be just an IIS default setting to disable browsing. To resolve that, just navigate to that web site in IIS, find Directory Browsing icon, and press Enable. You will at least see the files inside that directory.
Also try not only 127.0.0.1:81, buta specific document inside that folder, like 127.0.0.1:81/Default.aspx
Take into account the fact that there's sometimes some mess with the ports. You see that in the error message it's port 82, but in your browser it's port 81. So make sure you're using the right port. Or, even better, in your service definition try to use some non-standard port for this to avoid remapping.
I've met the same issue. In the end, I had to reinstall IIS 7.
I got this exact same error and tried a re-install of IIS and the Azure SDK - nothing worked.
Eventually tracked it down to the "IIS URL Rewrite Module 2". I went to the Control Panel and chose Repair and it resolved it. If you have a section in your web.config then this might be the cause.
Follow step 11 from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35448. Worked for me on Windows 8 with Oct 2012 SDk when upgraded from 2011.
