ASP.NET exceptions not showing in Application EventLog

Question

On my Windows 2008 R2 servers, every uncaught ASP.NET exception generates an event that shows in the Windows Application Eventlog.

On my Windows 2012 servers, none of them do.

Is there anything I can do, purely in configuration (not adding code to my application), to make my Windows 2012 servers show these exceptions?

Does the account the run the IIS app pool have the right permissions to write to the event log? — Chris, Nov 20 '14 at 17:08
On the 2012 server it is running as ApplicationPoolIdentity. Not sufficient? — Ross Presser, Nov 20 '14 at 19:52
