Unrecognized configuration section "

[dmarino1]

Sorry to anyone if I made the mistake of "Thread Hijacking"...onto the issue

Attached is my Web.Config file. I am getting upto 6 different Unrecognized Configuration section issues...

I am converting from VB to C# using a product called CodeChargeStudio4, a product the company wants me to use. I have been able to resolve most of the other issues but I am down to these last 6...for now.

this is the error message when publishing to the web site - .NET...

Hi,

There are 2 <system.web> sections in your config file. Remove this -
<!--sysytem.web tail @0-49F1C7C6-->
<system.web>
</system.web>
<!--End sysytem.web tail-->

Then move the sections which are causing the errors to the other <system.web> section which also contains the <customErrors mode="Off"> setting.

I think this will solve your problem.

well, I tried to remove, everytime I re-publish it gets recreated so its something this application requires...any other suggestions?
