Hi All.

I am having some issues with a CMS 6 R2 site - that works fine on our development server - but when I try to run on my localhost I get this error.

Anyone having run into this issue ?

The site is a blank solution with a startpage that fetches a text.

I don't recommend using the built in Visual Studio web server but IIS instead. However if you need to use the built in server, maybe this post can help: http://www.jonathansewell.co.uk/index.php/2010/11/29/episerver-6-visual-studio-development-server/.

What version of IIS is your development server on, i think Cassini is based on IIS6 so if you have a web.config for IIS7 it will not work
