IIS and asp.net appcmd

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden
The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.
Most likely causes:

    A default document is not configured for the requested URL, and directory browsing is not enabled on the server.

Things you can try:

    If you do not want to enable directory browsing, ensure that a default document is configured and that the file exists.
    Enable directory browsing.
        Go to the IIS Express install directory.
        Run appcmd set config /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true to enable directory browsing at the server level.
        Run appcmd set config ["SITE_NAME"] /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true to enable directory browsing at the site level.
    Verify that the configuration/system.webServer/directoryBrowse@enabled attribute is set to true in the site or application configuration file.

I have the above error when I try to run my first application with VS12. Have you any idea of what is going wrong and how can I fix it ? In VS10 I guess I don't have this sort of error message

You need to enable directory listings and/or add a default document (default.aspx, default.htm...) to the root of the site.

For more information about directory listing: Enable directory listing
