I am trying to deploy a new .NET app and am getting some odd occurrences. I
have checked many newsgroups and all documentation available for this
particular message and have performed all of the suggested steps, to no
avail. I have 2 separate systems where I am running this app One is a test
web server located in a DMZ network, that has not been fully secured. By
that I mean, I have URLScan setup, but have not done any additional security
lockdowns. The other is a production system and has been more extensively
locked down, and is also in the DMZ. The app runs fine on the test server,
but not on the production server. I have exhausted everything I know to try.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Below is the exact error I
receive.

Server Error in '/DataSync' Application.
