  <deployment retail="true"/> takes IIS7 down Reply Contact Hello Everyone, I have a fresh 64 bit server 2008 box with IIS7 on it and I am trying to set <deployment retail="true"/>. Because the server is 64 bit, I have two folder paths with .net framework stuff. Framework and Framework64. This also means that I have 2 machine configs. If I add the retail="true" to the 32bit machine config nothing happens. If I add the same line to the 64 bit machine config, all of websites on this IIS7 server (2 sites) crash and give me a 503 error. I did a restart and the sites are still down. Has anyone successfully used the retail="True" in a 64 bit senario? If so, please help!! Thanks, Dave

  Re: <deployment retail="true"/> takes IIS7 down Reply Contact Good suggestion. I should have thought of that. Here is what I found:   The worker process for application pool 'NAMEOFMYDOMAIN.org' encountered an error 'Configuration file is not well-formed XML ' trying to read global module configuration data from file '\\?\C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.config', line number '144'. Worker process startup aborted. I placed the deployment retail="true" tag just inside the system.web. Is that not the place to put it? Any thoughts?

It should not have made it invalid though. I will try placing it somewhere else.
