Not sure why this is happening
This error is happening in one application but not in all applications. I have verified security settings are the same

Any ideas?

This is a problem that sometimes happens when you update a running site with
a lot of pages at once and someone hits one of the pages, forcing it to
compile.

Chances are, it you fully stop IIS and restart it again, it will go away.
Try:

net stop iisadmin /y
iisreset
