Hi!

I'm running both EPiServer 6 R2 and EPiServer 7.1 on my local machine. The site running on EPiServer 7.1 works. The site running on EPiServer 6 R2 doesn't work. It throws an exception (see details below) that I haven't been able to resolve.

Some things I've done:

- Repaired my EPiServer 6 R2 installation.

- Compared my local web.config with the one for our live site. They're identical.

- Replaced my local DLLs with the ones from the live site.

Anyone have any idea on how to proceed, or what could be wrong? Could the GAC somehow be corrupt?
