IIS not running ASP.NET MVC application

Question

I have deployed an asp.net MVC application to my IIS7 server. When I attempt to browse the dafault route I get the message

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden

The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.

It's clear to me that it is not loading/processing the global.asax, but I have no idea why. I've deployed another MVC application to this same location/app pool and it works fine.

Does anyone have any idea how to debug a problem like this?

This is a valid question for asp.net programmers as () by the guidelines it describes a problem interacting with: "software tools commonly used by programmers" — lostinplace

Maybe:

<system.webServer>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/> 
</system.webServer>

OR
