When I press the button for MySql Web Configuration in Visual Studio 2012 it immediately shows the following error.
This is in a basically blank web app MVC 4 - nothing added really and yet I can't get this thing to fire up - any ideas?

your problem is located in a file called "machine.config", there are 2 files.
1st:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ [version_no] \Config 2nd:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\ [version_no] \Config backup each file before making any changes
open each file with notepad
search document for the following sections
<membership> <profile> <roleManager>
within these sections, remove everything after MySql.Web and stop before the closing end quote... it should like this when your down ---> MySql.Web"
same and repeat for the next machine.config file
close Visual Studio
reopen your project and try the website configuration tool.
not sure why this works. just know how to fix it.
