MVC 4 controller error after adding a controller

Question

I have deployed a MVC4 internet application to Azure successfully. I can then browse to the site and it is all working correctly.

I have then added a Book model and a Book controller. This works correctly on my localhost and I can add Book items.

I have then deployed this MVC4 internet application to Azure and I can browse to the home page with no errors.

However, I am getting an error when browsing to the Book controller.

This is the error that I am getting:

Error.

An error occurred while processing your request.

What would be causing this, and how can I get this controller page working? Can I get more information about this error?

Thanks in advance

There is some exception coming in your application and your Remote Errors are turned off so its displaying User Friendly Error Message

Add these lines to your web.config, if you want the errors to be displayed what it is exactly:

<compilation debug="true"/>
<customErrors mode="Off">
</customErrors>

I'm going to run with a wild stab in the dark and say your database connection strings will not be set correctly; which is why it's working locally but not on the cloud.

Eshan's answer will definitely let you drill into what's going on, though.
