I had just compiled my site using Publlish Website feature of Visual Web Developer. But when I deployed the compiled website in the local IIS, I received the following error message in the browser:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Can anybody help me solve this problem?

I've seen this before. I think that you may be running the website under ASP.NET 1.0 instead of 2.0 on the server. Go to the website in IIS, right click on it, get the properties, make sure you're running it under asp.net 2.0 on the asp.net tab.

That should fix the problem.
