ASP.NET Vnext error after deployment to IIS

I am using .NET Full CLR and VS 2015 CTP5. I am able to run a simple project locally on IIS Express but when I package and deploy to IIS, I get this error - 

[Exception: Unable to locate project.json]

[TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.]

[TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.]
System.Web.HttpRuntime.HostingInit(HostingEnvironmentFlags hostingFlags, PolicyLevel policyLevel, Exception appDomainCreationException) +556

In case it helps others. I had a similar error (without the "Unable to locate project.json" exception) due to my global.json file being invalid. In particular, I had used back slashes instead of forward slashes in the "packages" path.
