William,

Most likely, there's some configuration or other error on the published
version of the web site. But, by default, you can't see what it is from your
computer.

When you browse an ASP.NET site from a remote machine (rather than from the
local host), and an exception occurs, by default ASP.NET shows the custom
error. This is for security, so that the stack trace and other application
debugging information isn't shown to other clients.

To override this behavior, modify your web.config (or add one to your
project), so that it includes the <customErrors mode="off" /> directive.
This will let you see what the real error message is.
