I have a fresh Windows Server 2012R2 web server, with IIS working. I have followed these instructions 2 different times with the same result, "500 - Internal server error".
I have placed the Umbraco root files in the wwwroot and given the IIS_USRS modify permissions to that folder.
Update, I tried to move the Umbraco extraceted directory and mapped a new site in IIS with these results:
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error
The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.
Detailed Error Information:
Module
IIS Web Core
Notification
BeginRequest
Handler
Not yet determined
Error Code
0x80070021
Config Error
This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by default (overrideModeDefault="Deny"), or set explicitly by a location tag with overrideMode="Deny" or the legacy allowOverride="false".

I think your IIS install may not be correct. I googled your error and it seems to be related to a bad configuration of IIS.
Also check that your app pool is setup correctly.

So, I enabled all of the ASP.NET 4.5 Features and it worked...
Just to clarify - how to enable all of the ASP.NET 4.5 Features :
I found this at http://www.jammer.biz/enable-asp-net-on-windows-10/
In PowerShell, as administrator, run dism /online /enable-feature /all /featurename:IIS-ASPNET45
This did the trick for me.
is working on a reply...
