cannot load http://localhost/default.aspx

Re: cannot load http://localhost/default.aspx

Looks like the application is written in .net 2.0 while IIS thinks that
the application is 1.1. If you view the properties tab for the virtual
directory you will be able to change the version in the asp.net tab.

Re: cannot load http://localhost/default.aspx

Set up a separate application pool for 2.0.
Make sure that the app in question is set to run 2.0.
Move it to the new application pool that is set for 2.0.

Most likely, you have the app set for one version and placed in an app pool
for a different version.

NOTE: Best method to purpose a single app to a specific version of the
framework is aspnet_regiis with an -s flag. See

You are trying to run an ASP.NET 1.1 app with web.config settings
which are only valid for ASP.NET 2.0.

Use the "ASP.NET" tab in the IIS Manager to configure that app so it targets ASP.NET 2.0.

Re: cannot load http://localhost/default.aspx

done that already, previous post suggests

default website, properties, asp.net tab, asp.net version changed to 2.#
then IISRESET.

is this right ?

Re: cannot load http://localhost/default.aspx

Yes, that is right.

The error message, however, is quite specific :
"Unrecogniz ed configuration section 'connectionStri ngs' "

That is the error message sent when a 2.0 app is being targeted to 1.1.

Have you changed the <configuration. ..> section header ?

It should be :
<configuratio n xmlns="http://schemas.microso ft.com/.NetConfigurati on/v2.0">

Re: cannot load http://localhost/default.aspx

One more thing.

Did you do that for the "Default Web Site",
or for the *specific* application which is throwing the error?

Unless you're developing in the root application,
you need to do that for the specific application which is returning the error.

i changed the default website to 2.0 , could not find anywhere else to
change to 2.0 to be honest.

i will try creating a new app quickly in visual studio 2005 - maybe its a
problem in the setup in the code.

In the web.config of your application, of course.
