title: ASP.NET pages not loading on IIS8 (Windows Server 2012)
body: <p>I am trying to set up my Windows Server 2012 to run an ASP.NET website. The website can serve html pages and .svc pages, but whenever I visit an .aspx page, it will simply time out.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Error 118 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>If I would at least get some sort of error description, I could go from there, but I just get a timeout message, as if the server is completely unavailable, so I am stuck with this problem.</p>
  
  <p>It seems the aspx pages are not loaded at all, since I've already tried drastic measures such as putting a "throw Exception" in the first line of Page_Load.</p>
  
  <p>If I create a new site and put just an aspx page in there, it executes fine.</p>
  
  <p>The Event Log is not showing anything in relation to this.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone have any suggestions?</p>
