Hi,
I encounter this error on every installation attempt, and configuring Feature Delegation does not resolve the issue:
Filename: \\?\C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dvls\web.config
Error:
Unable to configure feature delegation. Please ensure the feature delegation is set to Read/Write for these features:
- Authentication - Windows
- Handler Mappings
- Modules

Hello,
Indeed, thank you for the additional information!
It looks like the issue is related to IIS. Could you please try to remove the entire IIS feature and install it again?

i am reviewing DSP.console.log file. i found this information

think IIS is now capable of properly hosting ASP.NET Core apps. However, Devolutions Server (DVLS) still shows the same web.config error (0x8007000D), so the issue must be related to the web.config file rather than missing modules.
