web.config file problem

C

c676228

Hi all,

I cut and paste the following code from msdn help page which it just
introduces view and multiview server controls.

Here is what I do:
in vs studio 2005, File --> New Web Site, it brings me to the dir: C:\Visual
Studio 2005\WebSites\WebSite1, it creates default.aspx and default.aspx.vb
and I pasted the following code into default.aspx.
I go to build to build web site and it says:------ Build started: Project:
C:\...\WebSite1\, Configuration: Debug .NET ------
Validating Web Site
Building directory '/WebSite1/'.
So I created virtual dir website1 to point to C:\Visual Studio
2005\WebSites\WebSite1
Then I ran localhost/webSite1/default.aspx
The following error message comes up:
Parser Error Message: Unrecognized configuration section 'connectionStrings'

Source Error:
Line 10: <configuration>
Line 11: <appSettings/>
Line 12: <connectionStrings/>
Line 13: <system.web>
Line 14: <!--

Source File: C:\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\WebSite1\web.config Line: 12

I don't know why since it is created by vs by default. so I commented out.

The open the page again, then the following message comes up:
Description: 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: Child nodes are not allowed.

Source Error:


Line 25: <compilation debug="false" strict="false" explicit="true" />
Line 26: <pages>
Line 27: <namespaces>
Line 28: <clear />
Line 29: <add namespace="System" />


Source File: C:\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\WebSite1\web.config Line: 27
and I delete that part.
And I opened the page again:
Now the error message is:
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to
service this request. Please review the following specific parse error
details and modify your source file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: Could not load type
System.Web.UI.WebControls.MultiView from assembly System.Web,

Source Error:

Line 45:

Line 47: runat="Server">
Line 48:


Source File: C:\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\WebSite1\default.aspx Line: 46
I never encounter this kind of problem before, can you help?

Thanks.

Betty

Hi Betty,

Nice to see you.

Seems you start moving to ASP.NET recently?

Regarding on the the problem you encountered, here are my understanding and
some suggestions:

1. Start from Visual Studio 2005(and VS 2008), Visual studio provide a test
webserver for developing and debugging ASP.NET web application. Therefore,
at development time, you can directly select a page and to "view in
browser" or event start F5 to debug without deploying it to IIS:

http://dotnetfortherestofus.blogspot.com/2006/07/vs-2005s-personal-developme
nt.html

and that's also why visual studio let you choose a normal file system
directory(rather than IIS virtual directory though you can still choose to
create the project in IIS) when you create a new web site project.


2. As for the following error you mentioned (after deploy the the web site
directory into IIS):

"Parser Error Message: Unrecognized configuration section
'connectionStrings' "

based on my experience, this is a typical error which occurs when you
deploy an ASP.NET 2.0 application in a IIS virtual dir which is configured
to run .NET 1.1/ASP.NET 1.1

Therefore, I suggest you check whether the IIS(site or the application
virtual directory) has been configured as .NET 2.0. There should has a
"ASPNET" tab in the IIS virtual dir MMC to let you configure version. Here
is a web thread which also discussing on this:

http://forums.msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/csharpgeneral/thread/f3df53fe-666b-4a
98-92d2-d6e4ba52552a

For other sequential issue, I think some of them may also be related to the
runtime configuration. I suggest you first try the above things and make an
simple ASP.NET application(and some basic page that use some simple
controls) running. Then, we can continue to focus on other specific issues.

If you have anything unclear, please feel free to let me know.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng

Steven,

Excellent info. I tried 1. and I do see the page through view in browser.
Nice feature.
Yes , you are right, after I set up asp.net 2.0. Everything is OK.

I am moving to asp.net 2.0 and C#. I probably will post a lot of questions
later on.
Fabulous support.
