    AllowMethods GET POST OPTIONS DELETE PUT
    Require all granted
    </Location>

    Thank you! This was my issue however there I needed to disable WebDAV implicitly in the web.config even though it was not enabled!

    <modules>
        <remove name="WebDAVModule"/>
    </modules>
    <handlers accessPolicy="Read, Execute, Script">
        <remove name="WebDAV" />
    </handlers>

    Hello @Alon Berman,

    Yes, seems in your particular case there was a conflict between WebDAV and .NET Core IIS handlers

    Glad to see that you figured it out!

    Suppose others can find this solution useful!

    Hello @RuschGaming

     

    Let's put this into our web.config file under <configuration> and <system.webServer>

    <modules>
        <remove name="WebDAVModule" />
    </modules>
    <handlers>
        <remove name="WebDAV" />
        <remove name="PHP56_via_FastCGI" />
        <add name="PHP56_via_FastCGI"
            path="*.php" 
            verb="*" 
            modules="FastCgiModule"
            scriptProcessor="C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\Additional\PleskPHP56\php-cgi.exe" 
            resourceType="Either"
        />
    </handlers>

    or

    <handlers>
  <remove name="PHP73x86_via_FastCGI" /> 
      <!-- We instruct to delete the existing handler with that name -->
  <add name="PHP73x86_via_FastCGI" path="*.php" verb="GET,HEAD,POST,DELETE" modules="FastCgiModule" scriptProcessor="D:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v7.3\php-cgi.exe" resourceType="Either" /> 
      <!-- We give the new values for the handler. It is basically the  old handler but we added the DELETE method to the verbs -->
</handlers>
