I was getting this when I had two conflicting web.config files. One of them in a sub folder of the main project. Do you have anything similiar to this?

I solved it by taking everything out of the web.config in the sub folder except the things that were different to the main web.config.
My second web.config is as follows.
<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;utf-8&quot; ?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<!-- security -->
<authorization>
<deny users=&quot;?&quot; />
<allow users=&quot;*&quot; />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>


Hope that helps That'l do donkey, that'l do
