I have been working on project in MVC4. It was running, but after a while I got the error below. I tried to figure it out and removed those duplicate entity framework entries. But it does not connect with the database. How can I solve this issue?
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error

// this the web config file which available in my project. I coudn't find the duplicate entity framework there when I opened and checked it.
If you could post your web.config (remove any credential type stuff), that would help.
But the message looks pretty clear. You have a duplicate entity framework section.
The lines it showed you in the error message are the relevant lines it's talking about.
If you go into your web.config, you will probably see two sections that look something like
<section name="entityFramework" type="System.Data.Entity.Internal.ConfigFile.EntityFrameworkSection, EntityFramework, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" requirePermission="false" />
Just remove one of them and try again.
