I am getting  HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error The requested page
cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is
invalid.

when I have redefined a secion in web.config like

                <!-- redefine an equivalent section -->
                   6:             <section name="compilation"
type="System.Web.Configuration.CompilationSection, System.Web,
Version=2.0.3500.0, Culture=neutral,  PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
/>
    7:         </sectionGroup>


  Config error: There is a duplicate system.web/compilation section defined.

Anybody ran this kind of error before? (Vista and IIS7)

The solution is probably to 'remove' it first so that there isn't a duplicate. 
Just before your line six, add the following line:

< remove name="compilation" />
