title: IIS 8 401.3 with ACL and static content
body: <p>I'm having a problem with IIS and ACL's.</p>
  
  <p>I have configured an MVC application under a dedicated AppPool. The apppool runs under the ApplicationPoolIdentity (which in my case would be the user IIS AppPool\accountinfo.local = the same name as my website).</p>
  
  <p>I gave full control to this user on the root folder and made sure that the permissions are inherited.</p>
  
  <p>When I access the home page it runs fine and I can access it. However, when I try to access my static content, which is in a subfolder (Content/Site.css) I get an error 401.3.</p>
  
  <p>I have made sure that permissions are inherited and if I go to effective permissions I can see that this user does have full control.</p>
  
  <p>I have enabled failed request tracing and also security auditing but I don't get any log files, nor any events in the event viewer.</p>
  
  <p>What am I missing here? </p>
