Installation problem - Server Error in '/' Application
Hello all.
This is my first time to come across to umbraco so please bear with me!
I uploaded the bin files on my server but when I go to start the installation I get the following error.
Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the
server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent
the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for
security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on
the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error
message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a
<customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file
located in the root directory of the current web application. This
<customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to
"Off".
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be
replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect"
attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to
point to a custom error page URL.
As Johan says you should check up in the application pool if the site is set to .NET 4 or .NET 2 (3.5) - if you downloaded umbraco for .net 4, set it to .net 4 and so forth :)

Does anyone know how can I fix it? I cant wait to start using it.
Thank you.
As the text suggests, try setting the customErrors mode to "Off" and see if you can get a more informative error message.
What version of Umbraco are you using? What type of install, manual?
Regards,
Magnus
When I do this change I get this error.
I am trying to install it manually. It's version 4.5.2 and the server running ASP 4.
Do you want me to copy paste the entire web.config?
By the way, shouldnt be running normaly in this initial stage?
This video is for 4.0.3 but still useful:

If you haven't used Umbraco before I suggest taking a look at the Web Platform Installer:
http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx
it also happened to me many times. I always forget to switch. net version.
cheers
