what
I created a very simple asp.net web service using the .NET framework 3.5, it stopped working when I tested it with the unit test. Now I want to host it in IIS, for this I have prepared a web configuration project for it .
And they added content files and the initial output of the web service project after installing this and testing on iis.
Problem
When I try to start webservice using a browser, I get the following error
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error The requested page is not available because the configuration data associated with it is invalid for the page.
What have i tried? I tried changing the security permissions for IIS_Users to allow reading to write everything, tried changing the version of the application pool while I was trying to use the default version of .NET Framework 4.
Cheats I think main.config is the main culprit, so I insert it here ...
