this how we fixed it 

<modules>
  <remove name="WebDAVModule"/>
</modules>
<handlers>
  <remove name="WebDAV" />
  <remove name="ExtensionlessUrl-Integrated-4.0" />
  <add name="ExtensionlessUrl-Integrated-4.0"
       path="*"
       verb="*"
       type="System.Web.Handlers.TransferRequestHandler"
       preCondition="integratedMode,runtimeVersionv4.0" />

</handlers>
<security>
    <requestFiltering>
        <verbs>
            <add verb="DELETE" allowed="true" />
            <add verb="PUT" allowed="true" />
        </verbs>
    </requestFiltering>
</security>

I think you should enable DELETE verb on IIS by removing WebDAV

add this lines on your web.config

<modules>
    <remove name="WebDAVModule" />
</modules>

<handlers>
    <remove name="WebDAV" />
</handlers>
