Sounds like some obsolete attribute in a different namespace or assembly is the issue or you have a legacy dll in there and it should be removed.  try clearing you asp.net cache / temp files

My best guess is that you have some 3rd party modules like EPiImage, PageTypeBuilder that you have multiple dlls for (both for EPiServer 6 and 7). Check through your bin folder and make sure that you only have one dll per 3rd party module...

you are looking for a module that is visible somewhere in edit/admin mode...like epi image...

If you can't locate the faulting 3rd party module...start trying to removing them one by one from solution until it works...

That looks like a missing dll in bin folder or wrong dll in bin folder. I would suggest installing an alloy demo site and compare file by file that you have all dlls of the correct version. Also check assembly redirects in web.config that it really redirects to the correct version...
