Umbraco 8 Local IIS HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error

So I was experiencing a problem with Umbraco 8 and getting up and running with local IIS. I had many projects working like this with Umbraco 7 so It was driving me crazy the fact Umbraco 8 was throwing errors.

Umbraco 8 Local IIS HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error

I had done all the usuals.

Edit the host file

Add write permissions for IUSR and IIS_IUSRS

Installed .Net 4.7

There were a lot of other blogs saying to complete these steps. In my case this was down to a missing Re-Write module. I simply installed this and the problem went away.

Hope this helps someone in the future.

Hey Peeps,

I'm an entrepreneur and web developer with a passion for coding. I absolutely love working with Umbraco CMS and appreciate the Umbraco community even more.

I've got 10 years+ .Net experience and 7 years+ experience working in the recruitment industry, both coding and marketing job websites. I wanted to use my skills to help give something back to this awesome community and so I decided to build UmbraJobs.com.

My vision & fundamentals

I want this website to be a place where Umbraco Professionals and Umbraco Partners can advertise their services but at the same time I want to filter out all the under-qualified freelancers & agencies that take up the biggest part of other job & freelancer websites. We've all worked hard to gain our Umbraco certifications, partnership status, and help build the Umbraco community to what it is today. I want to see everyone get rewarded for their efforts.

Follow me on social media

If you're an Umbraco professional, partner, employer, recruiter or a passionate Umbraco community builder then I'm more than happy to hear from you. Follow me on my social media channels and please reach out if you have any needs, want help or consultation with anything Umbraco related or just want a general chat.
