Cannot debug ASP website on IIS 6.1

Question

I am new to our company and just trying to set up my workstation. We have an ASP website I am trying to debug in Visual Studio 2010. In the "Web" section of the project properties we have the "Use Local IIS Web server" option selected, however when I try to debug the page I'm working on I get the error "Unable to start debugging on the web server. See help for common configuration errors." I can see the site in IIS (Under Sites -> Default Web Site -> SiteImWorkingOn), and both IIS and the VS project are using .NET 4.0. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I should mention that I've run the "aspnet regiis -i" command in the command prompt to make sure IIS was running .NET 4.0

SECOND EDIT: I am now getting the following error: 

HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error

The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid

Hi NealRodruck,

Thank you for posting in the MSDN forum.

Based on your description, I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum, since this issue is related to ASP.Net. You could post this issue in http://forums.asp.net where asp.net experts live in. Thanks for your understanding. 

HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error… Error Code: 0x8007000d…

I did some research about it, you could check this blog about “Troubleshooting HTTP 500.19 Errors in IIS 7”. Hope it could help,

Best Regards,
