I deployed the Nuget source code to my company's web server, but when navigate to the URL, I get the following error (pulled from Event Viewer on the server):

This will run just fine on my local machine, but not on the web server. Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be? All I did was take the Nuget source code, modify the database details in the web.config to point to my database, and deploy it to the web server.

The local users group needed modify permissions to get past this error. Resolved.
