IIS site created under default website is not loading

Question

I created a simple webapi application and created an application inside Default website in IIS. eg; created the application named 'test.web'

when i try to access http://localhost/test.web the page is not loading and giving 500 error.

Can anyone point me what am i missing?

when i try to access only http://localhost it shows the default iis page. only the application created under default website is not loading up

Thanks

Enabling the ASP.Net module in 'Add and remove features' in IIS solved the issue
