while building the solution above error is occurring in the project file. i have checked the project file but no any comments present at that file.

Answer 1

Usually occurs when you merge your branch and comments in your web.config are messed up. Just make sure that the config file is a valid XML file and you are sorted.

In my case, it added comment character sequence <!-- without the closing part -->.
