ERROR: 8306 - An exception occurred when trying to issue security token... Please, help.

Question

Hi,

Help, please.

I’m running SP2010 Enterprise (14.0.6109.5002) and I getting this error:

An exception occurred when trying to issue security token: The requested service, 'http://localhost:32843/SecurityTokenServiceApplication/securitytoken.svc/actas' could not be activated. See the server's diagnostic trace logs for more information:

How can I fix it?

I try a lot of things and nothing happened.

Thanks in advanced.
