Why does LocalHost in VS 2012 not work for one of my ASP.NET websites?

I have a fairly big ASP.NET 3.5 website (using a SQL Server database) that refuses to open any page via the 'View in Browser' option of VS 2010 Pro or VS 2012 Pro, i.e. the LocalHost facility does not work for this site. All I get is a 'File Not Found' error.

This prevents me from using many of the debugging facilities of Visual Studio, which is very frustrating. Two other ASP.NET 4.0 sites (which are much simpler and do not have any SQL Server connections) can be viewed without any problem via the LocalHost service.

I suspect that the web.config file may be the source of my problem but would really appreciate some diagnostic guidance.

BTW, I posted a similar question a long time ago but got no useful answers. I'm hoping for a more positive response this time!
