Installing umbraco

I'm having some issues deploying a site that is running well locally. I deployed the application to my godaddy server but I keep on getting a 500 error page "Beware of Sharks" thing.

I can't even see the errors...

This is my config file:

I've deployed an Umbraco 4.5.2 site in godaddy a few months ago, this should be very similar althought it's Umbraco version 4.6.1.

Can anyone help me with suggestions or opinions ? Or can anyone help me in removing the godaddy beware of sharks error page...?

Hi Diogo

Have you tried to contact GoDaddy about this to hear what they're saying? As you probably know the error code is due to an internal server error, which could be caused by some buggy code but could also be because of some server related issues.

I had the same issue. It was the web.config file not bieng asp.net 4.0 compatable. Heres mine that fixed it:
