Upgrading from CMS 6 to CMS 6R2 and as soon as i fired the installation up im getting the YSOD (Yellow Screen Of Death).

Following is the error:

Source Error:

The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be 
shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of the 
below steps, then request the URL:

1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the 
top of the file that generated the error. Example:

  <%@ Page 
Language="C#" Debug="true" %>

or:

2) Add the following section 
to the configuration file of your 
application:

<configuration>
   <system.web>
       <compilation 
debug="true"/>
   </system.web>
</configuration>

Note 
that this second technique will cause all files within a given application to be 
compiled in debug mode. The first technique will cause only that particular file 
to be compiled in debug mode.

Important: Running applications in debug 
mode does incur a memory/performance overhead. You should make sure that an 
application has debugging disabled before deploying into production 
scenario.

I had the same problem. In my case the reson was EPiServer Composer still in 4.0 version (thus referance EPiServer 6.0.xxx).

From your stack trace I can see you also have Composer module.

Solution:

Upgrade your Composer to 4.1 version. Below you find a link describing how to do it:
