Team,

I am attempting to create a custom project based on MonoX 4. I have my dev environment working properly, but when I attempt to access the site through IIS I get the following:

Server ErrorInternet Information Services 7.0
Error Summary
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error
The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid. Detailed Error Information

Links and More InformationThis error occurs when there is a problem reading the configuration file for the Web server or Web application. In some cases, the event logs may contain more information about what caused this error.

I have tried to resolve the problem by using a working web.config file from another setup on my Intranet but get the same error. I have made the appropriate changes to the web.config as described in the blog post about creating a custom project based on MonoX.

My appologies ahead of time if this is trivial. Any help would be appreciated.

Team,

As it turns out, this was trivial. When I installed to IIS originally, I used the Web Platform Installer. It created an Application Pool for the installation and set the target framework to .NET 4. When I set up the dev system, I installed from the source package and neglected to properly set the framework version for the application pool. The default was .NET 2.x. After making the change from v2.x to v4 in IIS Manager, the lights came on.

For anyone who comes across this post with the same issue, do the following:

1. Start the IIS Manager
2. From the Connections Pane on the left, expand the server node and then click Application Pools..
3. In the right pane (Application Pools) double-click on the application pool to which you have the application assigned.
4. From the .NET Framework Version dropdown, select .NET Framework v4.

I know this step was documented prior to this post. My appologies and thanks for a great CMS.

Hi,

yes this can be a common mistake, but it is solved in a matter of minutes, as you did so :). Thanks for a few nice words.

Regards
