You need to find out the exact error the application is throwing. The message you are seeing is a general error message because remote errors is turned of. So you can either view the site on the local machine to see the error or adjust the <customError> section of the web.config. Read more about customeErrors at
It looks as if you figured it out by yourself. If you could please share what you did to correct the problem I would appriciate it (just in case others find themseleves in the same situation).

I found it and it was very weird. After creating a custom errorpage.aspx (copied an example from aspzone) and adjusted the webconfig as wrecker told so. The error message was that the db_config.xml was not in c:\inetpub. off course not i thought. And uploaded an adjusted web.config But the same problem still happened. Finaly when looking with good old DOS ftp I saw wat happened. For som reason all uploaded web.config where copied as a copie of the orginal on. So the situation occured

web.config
web.config(1)
web.config(2)
web.config(3)
??!?!?!?!? the files where not readonly. So i deleted everything and uploaded a new project from sourceforge from scratch and it worked!!!!!!!
Very strang and i had never had that problem with other sites..but anyway it works.
As a feature I should add a custom errorpage to ndcms so this problem get solved easily.
thnx
