asp site will not work when uploading to web server?

     <?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="rde_410978ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=SQL2008.net.dcs.hull.ac.uk;Initial Catalog=rde_410978;Integrated Security=True"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
  </connectionStrings>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0"/>
  </system.web>
</configuration>

Here is my config file. I'm publishing it to the server by going to build > publish website.

None of the errors are due to the server as the university has set it up and it's working correctly for other people.

the error:

Configuration Error 
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately. 

Parser Error Message: Unrecognized attribute 'targetFramework'. Note that attribute names are case-sensitive.

I think its because of the .net version of the Deployment Environment, which I presume is not 4.0.

Check it up with others if they have the same target Framework listed i.e. 4.0.

Did you check IIS?

Sometimes IIS is set to a different framework.
