Can you add this key in the web.config:

<add key="CMSDisplayApplicationErrorMessages" value="true" />

Defines the level of information which is displayed to the user if the application fails to initialize (e.g., the application fails to connect to the SQL server):

false - only general error message is displayed.

true - detailed information about the origin of the error is displayed.

Also check for:

  <system.web>
    <customErrors mode="Off" />
  </system.web>
