        }

        protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)
        {
            if (disposing)
            {
                db.Dispose();
            }
            base.Dispose(disposing);
        }
    }
}

Check the event viewer, it usually has more descriptive error messages than IIS — Ruskin, Jan 10 '16 at 22:15

ASP.NET follows a "convention over configuration" approach. This means that, for instance, in order to instantiate your controllers, the default controller factory will try to look for classes following the naming convention <Name>Controller. If you don't like this approach you can write your own Controller Factory (see here for example), but in general this is not necessary.

So to fix your problem you should rename HomeControllers to HomeController.
