  Re: ::: Web.Config Compilation error - Overriding the Web.Config file settings ::: Reply Contact Hi, You can remove  predefined section or section group by using <remove> element in the sub sites' web config file. It looks like this: <configuration>    <configSections>       <remove name="system.web.extensions "/>      <!--          Add your new section or section group       -->    </configSections> </configuration> For more information, please refer to: <remove> Element for <configSections> http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa309404(VS.71).aspx Additionally, you can get more valuable suggestions at ASP.net Forum(the same log in here).
