From my experience,to run Nopcommerce by IIS two thing we have to Check

1.Check
<connectionStrings>
       <add name="LocalSqlServer"
        connectionString="data source=.\[SQLSREVER Instance Name Of the host ];Integrated
        Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User
        Instance=true"
        providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
        </connectionStrings>

     present in machine config file of the host.

2.Write permission to images/thumb folder.

If you get error like this:

No.1:

An error occurred during the processing of a
configuration file required to service this request. Please review the
specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: The connection name 'LocalSqlServer' was not
found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty.

then  it may cause for no.1.

No.2:

A generic error occurred in GDI+. Description: An unhandled exception
occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the
stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in
the code.
