Hi I'm getting an Internal error 500 when I move a site from WIN2008 to WIN2012, site works perfectly WIN2008, FW4.0

Browsing the site gives

Any ideas?

Hi Joe

I've checked and there isn't another web.config in an higher folder

I've also for test purposes removed all other sites from the server and still get the same error
