In my case it reason from permission.When I ran my project locally on IIS Express everything was fine,and I could upload files correctly, but when I deployed it on IIS 8,it had returned me "Error 500 Internal server Error" for file uploading. I have changed the permissions for "IIS_IUSRS" on "upload" folder in IIS 8 as follows:

Check on server that your application pool has rights of network services or other user with higher authority to Modify the directory & file writing. If your code is working in local this seems the only issue at moments.
