Solved. While gathering information about my setup I found the solution.
Setting "Default web site > Authentication > Anonymous Authentication (keep enabled) " to "Application Pool Identity" solved my issue. Here's a few tags and keywords for future reference when someone else bumps into this: In IIS i have one site, which is the default web site. Below It's stored at c:/inetpub/wwwroot. This is where the web2py zip file contents went, so there is an applications folder, examples, gluon, jada jada. URL rewrite is used like in the example given in the web2py book. When the static rewrite rule is enabled and setting "error pages > Edit feature settings> Detailed errors" I get the following error when requesting http://wvwebt01/welcome/static/css/calendar.css: HTTP Error 401.3 - Unauthorized You do not have permission to view this directory or page because of the access control list (ACL) configuration or encryption settings for this resource on the Web server. Detailed Error Information: Module IIS Web Core Notification AuthenticateRequest Handler StaticFile Error Code 0x80070005 Requested URL http://wvwebt01:80/applications/welcome/static/css/calendar.css Physical Path C:\inetpub\wwwroot\applications\welcome\static\css\calendar.css Logon Method Anonymous Logon User Anonymous Looking at http://stackoverflow.com/a/10457630 i changed "iis manager> default web site > authentication > Anonymous Authentication > Edit... > Application pool identity" instead of specific user IUSR (default), which is not given any direct access on the files, but according to the book the application pool group is.
