Inappropiate web.config for new server?

Hello,

I am moving with some mojo-sites to another server.

Everything is fine for the newer versions.
But for an old version (2.3.3.4 MySQL) I get the error message after upload:

The "system.web.extensions / scripting / scriptResourceHandler" section has been defined twice.

This is the line from the web.config:

        <section name="scriptResourceHandler" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingScriptResourceHandlerSection, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" requirePermission="false" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication" />

 

If I comment out this line, then the next error message with nearly the same text regarding the next line comes, and so on, and so on.


        <sectionGroup name="webServices" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingWebServicesSectionGroup, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35">
          <section name="jsonSerialization" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingJsonSerializationSection, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" requirePermission="false" allowDefinition="Everywhere" />
          <section name="profileService" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingProfileServiceSection, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" requirePermission="false" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication" />
          <section name="authenticationService" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingAuthenticationServiceSection, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" requirePermission="false" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication" />
          <section name="roleService" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingRoleServiceSection, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" requirePermission="false" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication" />

 

After I did this some times another error message accurs, something was missed. I think it was not the right way to solve the problem ... smiley

 

Best regards
Matthias

Re: Inappropiate web.config for new server?

When I upgrade our site, I start with the delivered web.config, and merge our custom changes into that. This is important because web.config contains things like the current CKEditor version path, etc.

Typically, any customizations will be in the user.config file, so about the only thing we need to customize web.config for is the timeout value and the custom machine key.

I'd recommend starting from the delivered web.config, and look for anything that needs to be changed for your environment.

I hope that helps.
Jamie
