Setup - Weird XML error

Hello - I'm new to mojo but not .net or XML.

Anyway I've got my web setup, I've build all the source, set the permissions on the data folder, setup the database and modified the connection string. When I try to hit /setup/default.aspx I get this error:

 

Server Error in '/mweb' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Parser Error
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.

Source Error:


Line 1: <browsers>
Line 2:
Line 3: <browser refID="Default">


I can't tell where this is being referenced in the source but I tried adding the XML declaration at the top - no change.

What could be the problem here? I'm using v2-2-3-4 of the source. Maybe my XML parser is out of date..??

Re: Setup - Weird XML error

Ok, so you are using IIS right and your url is like http://localhost/mweb

First thing to check is if there is another Web.config file at the root, ie at the localhost level (which by default would be c:\inetpub\wwwroot). If so that is interefering so remove it if you can.

Second make sure your mweb virtual directory is configured for 2.0 .NET and using an app pool for 2.0 .NET

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: Setup - Weird XML error

actually I just now figured it out - kinda.

In App_Browsers folder was a folder _vti_cnf - I assume this is a frontpage server extensions folder, but I'm not sure. Anyway there was a copy of the CSSFriendlyAdapters.browser file that was not valid. I deleted the file, rebuilt and things are moving along.

I think I'm good for now. Weird...
