I’m trying to install BlogEngine.NET in my Hosted Plan at arvixe.com
I get this error when I try to navigate to the Blog :
The configuration section ‘system.web.extensions’ cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration
53: </system.serviceModel>
54: <system.web.extensions>
55: <scripting>
And here is my web.config file.
There is some articles on internet about get this fixed but the problem is :
1- I’m using the blog in a Hosted plan
2- I don’t have access to the IIS configuration with Arvixe.
Do you think I can fixe this just by changing the web.config file ?
You need to tell your host to change the framework version your AppPool is tied to. Its probably tied to 2.0 which doesn’t recognize system.web.extensions. It needs to be changed to 4.0
