The server was unable to process the request due to an internal error. For more information about the error, either turn on IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults

Hi Guys,
  I came across this issue  today. I was totally blank. Later i started observing the issue and realised that, this issue is caused just because of  mismatch of assembly version or any attribute  in Security token service's web.config file (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\WebServices\SecurityToken).

Actual issue was i upgraded the assembly version and didn't do changes in web.config file of security token service

This blog helped me to fix my issue

Programmatically read the value from web.config file

Here is a situation where you need to keep a key value pair element in the web.config file and read them during the run time. I suggest, better keep key /value pair under <appSettings> element and read it programmatically . <appSettings>   <add key=" LicenseKey " value=" 987jKouterhsk " /> </appSettings> Assume , you have added a license key as above in the web.config file. You need the license key during run time. You can access the license key class named "ConfigurationManager". write a property  called getLicenseKey and return the corresponding license key. public string GetLicenseKey {    get{   return  ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[" LicenseKey "]; } } Now the property GetLicenseKey will have the value 987jKouterhsk. Use this value as per your requirement. -Cheers Pradeepa Achar
