Hi Folks,

I have a Web APplication developed in ASP.Net MVC 3 and is working absolutely fine on local machine.

Now the problem comes when I have uploaded the site to hosting site.

After hosting and while trying to access the site it gives following error.

Server Error in '/' Application.

Configuration Error

Hi jats,

You need to ask your hosting provider to setup .net 4 on your site. Based on the error message, it shows that your site is still using asp.net 2.

Yes, your current site is configured on asp.net 2.0, check in your hosting control panel and see if there's option to edit asp.net versions.
