500 - Internal server error with godaddy

Question

after i finished uploading my website, I found this error when I try to preview my website how can I solve this error? I try to add this code

<configuration>
<system.web>
    <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    <compilation debug="true"/>
</system.web> 
</configuration>

in web.config to get details about the error but the error message still the same!!! how can I solve it?

Could you maybe dump the entire error log - if there may be a trace - so we can see what the issue may be? — TheGeekZn, Mar 24 '14 at 05:56

One of the many cause of this error on Godaddy hosting is the framework version.

In this case, just change the .Net version

Go to ASP.Net setting and then click Change Version. Now, here you may downgrade the version to 2.0 .

This simple change in this case will work like a magic.

If your problem is still not resolved, please reply.
