Plesk Question posted in
The official documentation for Plesk Obsidian can be found here.

What do I do when my ASP.Net website is not allowed to perform some operations defined by the security policy of my web hosting service? – Plesk

My asp.net site coded in C# is running fine on my local system but when I uploaded the files on the httpdocs folder through plesk I am getting the following error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

    You need to right click on your Project, and then select “Publish”. You can either publish to the file system so you can alter your Web.config before you upload it to godaddy, or you could just set it to publish to the godaddy site. I’d choose the file system approach. One step at a time.

    As you said in your comments, “I added all files and folders except for the solution file in the Projects folder”, that doesn’t do anything. To execute from that, it needs to run from within the Visual Studio IDE. To properly set up where all of the files are supposed to be for production use, you must Publish your web project.

    The new error you posted is definitely security related.
    Go to the websites & domains tab. Under the primary domain for your account click the icon “ASP.NET Settings”. When the page loads, you should be able to up the permission to full under “Code Access Security”. Give that a shot, let us know if that works

    To solve the security/permission issues with GoDaddy, login to your GoDaddy Windows Plesk account and expand the “Web Hosting” tab. Then, click the “Launch” button to visit the “Websites & Domains” control panel. From there find the website, domain or subdomain you’re currently working on. Click the “ASP.NET Settings” button to adjust the “CAS Trust Level” to “Full” and the “Default Webpage Language” to “C#”. There you can also enter and save your Connection Strings, Authentication Mode (usually Forms), ASP.NET version, etc..

    Had the same problem, the error can be fixed using the web.config. Add the level="Full" level into trust element, like so:

    <system.web>
   ...
   <trust level="Full" />
   ...
</system.web>

    In addition to the previous comments, one thing I have noticed about GoDaddy with both MVC and WebForms apps is that GoDaddy hates Roslyn. This is the default compiler with new apps from Visual Studio. In addition to setting your CAS to Full access make sure you remove the Microsoft.Net.Compilers package and its dependency from your project, delete all existing files prior to publish (using the checkbox in the publish settings — don’t actually delete everything from your account!) and you should be good to go. I have this problem every time with GoDaddy publishing an app from Visual Studio.

    Good luck to anyone who finds this!
