I am getting error when i am publish my ASP.NET Application in localhost using IIS 7.5.
all the pages run perfectly expect on and getting error:-
Compiler Error Message: CS0433: The type 'pages_Default' exists in

Plese Help me to resolve this
Try it:
I set the batch="false" attribute on the compilation section in web.config worked for me.
This tells ASP.NET to dynamically compile individual .aspx/.ascx files into separate assemblies. This avoids the circular reference issue that triggers the exception.
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="false" batch="false"></compilation>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Or
You will have a path similar to the following:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files
Delete the contents of this entire folder (no harm will be done), then try and Clean and Rebuild your solution.
Or
The problem occurred in a virtual application's bin folder. Looking into this bin-folder you will probably see two files (an information i found here):
App_global.asax.dll
App_global.asax.compiled
Removing these resolves the error. The App_global.asax.dll is generated at runtime too which causes the problem.
I am however still investigating how these files got there, so comments are definitely welcome!

So I have been developing this application for my boss over the past few weeks and then last night the IT Administrator jacks with my machine. I think the only thing he did was rename the computer name, but there could be more. Anyway, I reopen the project after getting on the computer and now the ASP.Net web project is looking into the current directory of every aspx file for a web.config instead of for the web.config in the root of the project directory (where it has been this whole time).
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: An error occurred loading a configuration file: Failed to start monitoring changes to 'C:\*web project location*\pages' because access is denied.
Source Error:
[No relevant source lines]
Source File: C:\*web project location*\pages\web.config
The web.config file is located and should load under c:\*web project location*\web.config. There is no other web.config files in the project. I have various folders defined in the project for different parts of the application, a folder for UserControls and for MasterPages. If I open any aspx file from one of these sub folders, the <%# Page %> directive says it is looking for a web.config file in that directory instead of the root of the project.
Please help! I have been Googling and searching stack for an answer with no results. The only details I can find related to this occurring when deploying to IIS. I am not doing that.
Thank you in advance for your help. It is much appreciated.
I found the answer to this question. The Web Project was impersonating an identity.
From my web.config:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<identity impersonate="true" userName="DOMAIN\AppUser" password="Password" />
Not sure why the issue started occurring after the machine name was changed, but I was able to resolve the problem by adding the impersonating identity to the workstation (Win7) under Control Panel > Users > Manage Users and also by adding full permissions to the project directory for that identity.
I also found this post which led me to an even better possible option:
http://bytes.com/topic/asp-net/answers/309339-failed-start-monitoring-file-changes
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;824308
Changing the Security Policy of the workstation should prevent future problems if other identities were used. I did not try this option yet however, because I have a deadline to meet.
Greeting,
I developed a website using ASP.Net 3.5 and C#. It is working good with Visual Stdio 2010.
I uploaded my website to my domain under the public folder.
First time I lunched my website for testing (http://wecoders.com/Habib_cuizine/Gallery.aspx)
I would revive (Server Error in '/' Application.)
Runtime Error Description: An
application error occurred on the
server. The current custom error
settings for this application prevent
the details of the application error
from being viewed remotely (for
security reasons). It could, however,
be viewed by browsers running on the
local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this
specific error message to be viewable
on remote machines, please create a
tag within a
"web.config" configuration file
located in the root directory of the
current web application. This
tag should then have
its "mode" attribute set to "Off".
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
>
> <configuration>
> <system.web>
> <customErrors mode="Off"/>
> </system.web> </configuration>
Notes: The current error page you are
seeing can be replaced by a custom
error page by modifying the
"defaultRedirect" attribute of the
application's
configuration tag to point to a custom
error page URL.
> <!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
>
> <configuration>
> <system.web>
> <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly"
> defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
> </system.web> </configuration>
To fix this error I added to the webConfig file inside tag:
> <customErrors mode="Off"/>
After that when I lunch the website I would receive a new error as listed bellow:
Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.

Line 38: <!--
Line 39: The section enables configuration
Source File: \10.0.40.35\wecoders.com\public\habib_cuizine\web.config Line: 37
Please advice how to fix this error and how configure my website which developed using Visual Stdio 2010 to be published in the internet.
Regards,
The key information in this error is this line:
This error can be caused by a virtual
directory not being configured as an
application in IIS.
In IIS, you can have several applications, but they must be configured as an application. Generally, when you create a web project it maps directly to an IIS application.
Check with your hosting service on how to create an IIS application for your web app.
Edit - added
If this is on your server, you can set this up yourself following the instructions in #Frazell Thomas's answer. He beat me to finding that link. To save yourself some reading, you should be able to focus in on the Creating Virtual Directories and Local Web Sites section.
right-click virtual directory (e.g. MyVirtualDirectory)
click convert to application.
Have you configured the virtual directory as an ASP.NET application for the right framework version?
See IIS Setup
Look at these two excerpts:
I uploaded my website to my domain under the public folder.
and
This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
It's pretty clear to me that you did exactly what you said you did, and no more, i.e. you transfered the files to the web server, but nothing else. You need to configure that public folder as a virtual directory in IIS as the error is telling you, or it's just not going to work.
Looks like you have <authentication mode="Windows" /> in your web.config file but your hosting provider won't let you use that. Just remove that line.
I got the same problem and my solution was to remove webconfig file from the directory.. then it works..

If you want to use inetpub/wwwroot/aspnet as your application, remove this
line :
Line 26:
and any other lines which define MachineToApplication beyond application
level
If you want to use d:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet\begin\chapter02\ as your
application,
create an IIS Application which points to
d:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet\begin\chapter02\
maybe you can refer link above.
For my application, my web.config store in d:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet\begin\chapter02\
and when i move the web.config to d:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet and the problem is solve.
Please check also does your application have two web.config file.
Looks like this is a very generic message from iis.
in my case we enabled integrated security on web config but forgot to change IIS app pool identity.
Things to check -
go to event viewer on your server and check exact message.
-make sure your app pool and web config using same security(E.g Windows,integrated)
Note: this may not help every time but this might be one of the reason for above error message.
I have the same issue, my application was running on amazon vps, lately i found that bin folder had multiple copies of dll's ...
After removing those copies of dlls like entityframework(copy1).dll, errors were gone....
May be some one will get help...cheers
Removing the web.config-file from the IIS Directory Folder solves the problem.
Try removing the contents of the <compilers> tag in the web.config file. Depending on who you're hosting with, some don't allow the compiler in production.
Your application is trying to compile when it is called and their servers won't allow it.
This wont necessarily fix the problem...but it will tell you what the real problem is. Its currently trying to use a custom error page that doesn't exist.
If you add this line to Web.config (under system.web tag) it should give you the real error.
<system.web>
<!-- added line -->
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
<!-- added line -->
</system.web>
If your project is linq with Sql Database.
Then Simply Check your System Services and Start sql Server Agent Service.
Now your problem is solved.
Just check connectivity between SQL And your App (if you used SQL)
We have a webserver with two versions of the AjaxControlKit on it. Im getting the following error when hitting certain pages on a specific web application.
The type
'AjaxControlToolkit.CalendarExtender'
exists in both
'c:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\AjaxControlToolkit\3.0.30930.28736__28f01b0e84b6d53e\AjaxControlToolkit.dll'
and
'c:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\AjaxControlToolkit\3.0.30512.20315__28f01b0e84b6d53e\AjaxControlToolkit.dll'
The web project Im running has a reference to the x.30930 dll, and it also has
<add assembly="AjaxControlToolkit, Version=3.0.30930.28736, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e"/>
Specified in the web.config.
For the life of me I cant find out why it wants to try running x.30512.
Any suggestions?
Aaargh there was a reference to it in the 'global' web.config (in the c:\windows\microsoft.net\ folder
I've just uploaded an asp.net web project to a Fasthosts shared server (yes, I know!). The site works fine on a different server, and builds successfully. However, when I upload it (or even just the files in the App_Code folder) to the fasthosts server, I just get a flat error 500 message.
I've ensured that the web.config file includes: <customErrors mode="Off"/> but still nothing - just Error 500.
The Fasthosts server is running asp.net 3.5, which is what the web project is built to.
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong, or how I get more information as to the cause of the error?
Thanks all...
You probably have an error in the web.config revert to old web.config and see if that works.
If you have
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
In your web.config, remove it.
I am trying to deploy an asp.net application in our server while I am receiving the following error.

What is the reason and how to resolve it?
Please help
You may get this error when trying to browse an ASP.NET application.
The debug information shows that "This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS."
However, this error occurs primarily out of two scenarios.
When you create an new web application using Visual Studio .NET, it automatically creates the virtual directory and configures it as an application. However, if you manually create the virtual directory and it is not configured as an application, then you will not be able to browse the application and may get the above error. The debug information you get as mentioned above, is applicable to this scenario.
To resolve it, right click on the virtual directory - select properties and then click on
"Create" next to the "Application" Label and the text box. It will automatically create the "application" using the virtual directory's name. Now the application can be accessed.
When you have sub-directories in your application, you can have web.config file for the sub-directory. However, there are certain properties which cannot be set in the web.config of the sub-directory such as authentication, session state (you may see that the error message shows the line number where the authentication or session state is declared in the web.config of the sub-directory). The reason is, these settings cannot be overridden at the sub-directory level unless the sub-directory is also configured as an application (as mentioned in the above point).
Mostly, we have the practice of adding web.config in the sub-directory if we want to protect access to the sub-directory files (say, the directory is admin and we wish to protect the admin pages from unauthorized users).
I had this error when the .NET version was wrong - make sure the site is configured to the one you need.
See aspnet_regiis.exe for details.
I had this error with VS 2015, in my case going to the project properties page, Web tab, and clicking on Create Virtual Directory button in Servers section solved it
It sounds like the admin has locked the "authentication" node of the web.config, which one can do in the global web.config pretty easily. Or, in a nutshell, this is working as designed.
I just had the same issue on visual studio 2012. For a internet application project.
How to resolve “Server Error in '/' Application” error?
Searching for answer I came across this post, but none of these answer help me.
Than I found another post here on stackoverflow that has the answer for resolving this issue.
Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name: site
When you create an new web application using visual studio.net, it automatically creates the virtual directory and configures it as an application. However, if you manually create the virtual directory and it is not configured as an application, then you will not be able to browse the application and may get the above error.
I also got this error when I moved an entity framework edmx file into a "Models" sub-folder. This automatically changed the metadata in my connection string setting in my app.config.
So before the connection string changed... it looked something like this:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="MyDbEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/MyDb.csdl|res://*/MyDb.ssdl|res://*/MyDb.msl; ...
</connectionStrings>
And after... it added the "Models" subfolder name (btw... it also added "Models" to the namespace for the EF classes generated) and the connection string now looks something like this:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="MyDbEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/Models.MyDb.csdl|res://*/Models.MyDb.ssdl|res://*/Models.MyDb.msl; ...
</connectionStrings>
I have a website project that references this Entity Framework DB project. But its web.config did not have the updates to the connection string... and that's when I started getting the compilation error being discussed here.
To fix this error, I updated the connection string in the web.config in the website project to match the app.config in my EntityFramework project.
vs2017 just added in these lines to csproj.user file
<IISExpressAnonymousAuthentication>enabled</IISExpressAnonymousAuthentication>
<IISExpressWindowsAuthentication>enabled</IISExpressWindowsAuthentication>
<IISExpressUseClassicPipelineMode>false</IISExpressUseClassicPipelineMode>
with these lines in Web.config
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.5" />
<httpRuntime targetFramework="4.5" maxRequestLength="1048576" />
<identity impersonate="false" />
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<allow users="yourNTusername" />
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
And it worked
I opened the Properties window for the website project in question and changed Windows Authentication to "Enabled" and that resolved my issue in VS 2019.
The error message is quite clear: you have a configuration element in a web.config file in a subfolder of your web app that is not allowed at that level - OR you forgot to configure your web application as IIS application.
Example: you try to override application level settings like forms authentication parameters in a web.config in a subfolder of your application
