Deploying ASP.Net 4.0 website on IIS 6.0 - deployment

I recently upgraded an ASP.Net 2.0 website to ASP.Net 4.0 using VS2010 upgrade option.
Website works fine in cassini and even on our Windows 2003 server with IIS 6.0
But it will not come up on the client's environment.
Client too has a Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6.0 and .NEt Framework 4.0 installed.
I have registered ASP.NEt 4.0 with IIS 6.0 using
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319>aspnet_regiis –ir
also configured the website with .NEt framework 4.0 like below
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319>ASPNET_REGIIS -norestart -s "W3SVC
/1/ROOT/Website"
I have assigned the website a separate apppool dedicated to it.
I have tried restarting IIS and the machine but to no avail.
I have verified that under "Website Extensions" ASP.NEt 4.0 is allowed and also checked the site's configuration to confirm that .aspx among other is mapped to .NEt 4.0
I have given the internet user read access to the website directory.
I have been getting
"Server Application not available"
I also getting the following in the event log
Failed to initialize the AppDomain:/LM/W3SVC/1/Root/Website
Exception: System.IO.FileLoadException
Message: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web, Version=4.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies.
Access is denied.
Another one after this event is
Failed to execute request because the App-Domain could not be created.
Error: 0x80070005 Access is denied.
Website uses Active Reports 6.0 and elmah. That's it.
I would appreciate any tips/pointers to figure this issue out.
Thanks

I could not get the above scenario to work.
So I downgraded the website to .Net 3.5 which uses Framework 2.0 and this made deployment painless.
Not sure what it was about asp.net 4.0 and IIS 6.0 but I could not get to work in the client't environment even though I had it working in our test environment.

If you end up getting in a similar situation again (or for anyone else landing on this from a search), try granting the IIS User access to the 'Temporary ASP.Net Files' folder (under a relavant folder in C:\Windows\Microsoft.Net).
I've run into this a couple of times and that generally seems to work at least in my development environment. You'll likely want to do a bit more research before applying this in production.

Upgrade .NET Framework 4.5 to 4.8 - Web Application Returning 404 Error

I have attempting to upgrade a web application that uses .NET Framework 4.5 to 4.8.
The application runs on a server that both compiles and runs the application, so I installed the .NET Framework 4.8 Developer Pack. I restarted the server and it has booted up successfully.
TeamCity successfully built and compiled the application and Octopus successfully deployed as per usual. However, when I now attempt to access the website, I get a 404 at the login page.
Looking at the folder structure, the file is definitely there. The code builds and runs successfully on my local machine, allowing me to login and perform any function on the system.
Is there something that I have missed running or doing on the server to get this to work?
Edit: Request for IIS Configuration
The configuration of this hasn't changed since I've upgrade the .NET Framework but here is what I have. If this isn't the configuration that is being asked about, please let me know.
Bindings
Everything else has been left as the default values.

Deploy MVC 4 application 4.5 Framework 1and1 hosting

I'm trying to deploy an mvc 4 project in vs2012 via FTP on 1and1.com
This is what I'm getting.
HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden
The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.
Are there settings on 1and1 I need to set somewhere because it's an MVC proj or changes in webconfig?
#dright, Are you still encountering the problem? It appears 1and1.com has updated their hosting package to support 4/4.5 Framework with their Basic Windows hosting plans (https://www.1and1.com/windows-hosting?linkId=hd.subnav.windowshosting). I purchased a plan as a sandbox for deploying little apps that I develop.
I have successfully deployed a Asp.Net application using the WebMatrix IDE. But I have struggled using VS2013 template/default applications' Web.Config. I was curious if you have had any luck.
Thanks!
1and1 windows package doesn't support MVC. You would need to update to their server package. ~59/month

I am trying to deploy my MVC2 application on the IIS7 of my Windows Server 2008 R2 to allow non-developpers to test it.

I copied the published file, didn't worked...
When I click on the web site link in my IIS, nothing append.
I don't know what I am doing wrong..
Somebody could help me?
Thanks in advance
If you can give some more details on what happens when you try to browse to the site on the server (do you get a yellow screen exception, 404 error, etc) it will help to identify the cause. Without knowing more details, here are some suggestions:
If you don't have MVC 2 installed on your server (which is not a requirement), make sure you are doing the following:
In your Visual Studio project, under References, make sure you set the "Copy Local" property to "True" for System.Web.Mvc. This will deploy the dll to your site bin dir when you do a web deploy.
Make sure the .NET Framework version 4 is installed on the server. See here for more details.
In IIS, make sure the Application Pool that the site is using is set to use v4.0 of the .NET Framework.

ASP.NET Ajax client framework failed to load

We developed an web application using visual studio 2008. In my development PC, the application is working fine. In production server I am getting the following exception "ASP.NET AJAX CLIENT FRAMEWORK FAILED TO LOAD". What should I do to make it work?
Thanks,
P.Gopalakrishnan.
I'd start with making sure all of the appropriate service packs are applied and that the 3.5 framework is actually installed on the box.
Also, make sure any assembly you reference that isn't part of your deployment is gac'd on the machine. Check version numbers.
All else being equal, I'd guess the server is just way out of date on it's updates.
