  • You can add below code to your Application web.config file to resolve it permanently

 
<system.web>
    <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    <trust level="Full" />
</system.web>
 
 
  • This issue might occur in the case when server does not have higher version of .Net framework installed. suppose your application is developed to work with 4.5 run-time framework but the same version is not installed on the server. You can ask your web hosting provider to install the required version on the server so that your website will work as expected.
