IIS serving up a blank page when returning a 401

When a user does not have any permissions or the right permissions to an action in my application, I return an HttpUnauthorizedResult. When running locally and on our old set of servers, this would show the IIS 401 page to let them know the issue. However, I recently deployed to a new environment, and I am just getting a blank page. I've pulled up Fiddler and I can see that I'm getting a 0 content length returned from the server, so it's definitely something on the server side.

Open up Server Manager and go to Roles, then scroll down to Web Server (IIS). Make sure that Http Errors is Installed under Role Services.
