We had a backup domain controller running on our dev machine. After moving it to a different server, we got the following error on our development DNN websites:
Server Error in '/' Application.

I checked all the security permissions and ensured network service had full permission for the folder. I even reset permissions to make sure. No dice. I found the following trick to fix it quickly...despite my time looking for it.
In a command prompt, navigate to the following:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727
Then run the following command:
aspnet_regiis -ga "NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE"
Everything worked fine after running that. Since I am bound to forget this, I am posting it here for me and others, hopefully saving me or someone time.
