<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

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

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.

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
    </system.web>

This error comes when you have an exception in your application and you have CustomErrors set to On.
Just setting the custom error to On doesn't help. You will need to set a defaultRedirect value which is a page your website should redirect to when the error occurs. Usually you create an Error page, say Error.aspx and redirect to that page. This page has a customer friendly message.

If you have exception logging in place. Check the logs for what's wrong. That's how you will be able to correct it and move any further.
