  Mar 02, 2009 11:24 AM|LINK

  Hello Everyone,
  
  Thanks in advance,
  
  Here i had some problem with my web.config file in the root of the website on the production server.
  
  I created one website for my application assume "MySite". Under this i had some other applications assume like "MySubSite1" and "MySubSite2".
  
  When i access MySite its working fine. But when i access MySubSite1 or MySubSite2 it is giving some web.config compilation errors. Here the problem is it is taking the values from root web.config. Here i am pasting the error even....
  
  
  

  Server Error in '/Test/Test4' Application.

  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).

  I see this is running as ASP.NET 1.1 ... is the root set to ASP.NET 2.0?
