Problem was with the compression util

It seems that removing compression from web.config is not enough and you have to delete the files as well

Hi

What I Did Was:

1. Delete all the compression dll's from bin folder.

2. Backup your 4.0.2 web.config.

3. Rename the release.config from 4.3.4 to web.config (There are several differences).

4. Copy The 2 "SiteSQlServer" from your 4.0.2 web.config to the new one.

5. Copy Your "MachineKey" entries from your 4.0.2 web.config to the new one.

6. Copy the "InstallationDate" from your 4.0.2 web.config to the new one.

7. Save The Changes.

8. Recycle your asp.net service and then browse to your app...

This Way you will get your upgrade with no problems.
