Issue with assembly added in web.config between 2.0 and 1.1 app

[Robert]

I have a server where the main web application (root) is now migrated to 2.0.

It's web.config has a line where it adds the system.data.oracleclient in the
configuration and assembiles section.

There is a sub web application, configured as its own application that is
still under 1.1.

The 1.1 app won't run because it gets an error shown below. Apparently it
is picking up the settings from the root app's web.config (.NET 2.0) and
can't find the 2.0 system.data.oracleclient. The 2.0 app doesn't have any
issue.

How do i correct this so both will work?

Parser Error Message: File or assembly name System.Data.OracleClient, or one
of its dependencies, was not found.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your posting. Regarding on the configuration problem, it is
caused by the fixed runtime configuration collection behavior of ASP.NET.
ASP.NET will always parse and collect configuration from Up to down
(machine--> site--->parent web---> web app...) So I'm afraid we can not
prevent the configuration inheritance of our concrete web application when
there exists a different version 's web.config file at super level....
As for your scenario, we'll recommend that you upgrate the 1.1 web
application to 2.0 and for separate asp.net 1.1 application, we'd better
host them in a separate IIS site which is configured with ASP.NET 1.1

Thanks,

Steven Cheng
