IIS7 on Windows Server 2008 RC1 Configuration Data is invalid

I'm trying to run an ASP.NET 2.0 web site on Windows Server 2008 RC1.
I encounter a server error : HTTP 500.19 - Configuration data is invalid
IIS7 claims that the <appSettingssec tion in web.config is invalid.
The management tools are also unable to parse the configuration.

The same web site, with the same configuration, is running perfectly on Vista.

Is it tied to Windows Server 2008 RC1 ?
Any help appreciated.

TIA.

Is version 2.0 of the .NET framework definitely installed on the server?

Make sure the IIS application the app is running under is set to use version
2.0 of the framework rather than 3.0 (or 3.5)

You're much more likely to get an answer there.

ASP.NET 2.0 is installed on the server with the following command :
C:\Windows\Micr osoft.NET\Frame work\v2.0.50727 \aspnet_regiis. exe -ir

ASP.NET 2.0 ScriptMaps are registered to the target site with the following
command :
C:\Windows\Micr osoft.NET\Frame work\v2.0.50727 \aspnet_regiis. exe -s
W3SVC/1/ROOT/MyVDir

The default appPool is configured with version 2.0 of the .NET framework.

Hi All! I have a ASP.NET 2.0 site that works on the Windows 2000 Server. However, when I tried to view this site on my local Windows XP machine, I get "Server Unavailable". If I switch the Windows XP IIS back to ASP.NET 1.1 then I get the Configuration Error (which is understandable because I'm trying to run an ASP.NET 2 site with 1.1 framework). I can however view other ASP.NET 1.1 sites on my local Windows XP machine. It's only the...

So we have moved our app from .NET version 2.X in IIS6 to a Windows 2008 Server running IIS7. We have copied all files to the Windwardreports\apps directory and that apps directory has been converted to an application running in ..NET 2.X and Integrated mode. We copied over the DB and edited the web.config file to the DB username and password. I also added the NETWORK SERVICE user to the DB.

I recently installed Windows 2008 Server to replace a crashed hard drive on a web server with a variety of web pages including several classic ASP applications. One of these makes extensive use of file uploads using a com tool that has worked for several years. Under IIS7 doc files and jpeg files upload as before, but zip files give a 500 error. This works the same with the firewall on and off.

Hello, I am running WS2008 + IIS7 + FASTCGI + ZendCore. I have not modified the default ZendCore php.ini configuration file. Actualy, any kind of PHP error, warning or notice gives me immediately a IIS 500 Error (Internal Server Error). It is a good thing in production environnement. For debuging purposes, I want temporary to be able to see PHP warnings and errors embedded on the html page.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
