Check file versions in bin folder and make sure you don't have any EPi 6 dlls there. That would be my first action. It sounds as you have a dll in there.

Thanks for the tip! Its been checked. Only EPi 5 dlls in there. I know the EPiServer.Framework is only supposed to be called in CMS 6, so i dont understand how this can be?

Hi!

What steps have you done to try making it run in IIS 7.5? Any configuration that you have added that references EPiServer 6 assemblies?
