I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that the reason you've posted this is because you're looking for a solution for the error at the top...

It's pretty explicitly telling you the problem is with the following line:
>>Line 12: <connectionStrings/>

That being said, as there are no connection strings defined in your web.config file, you could easily delete that line entirely with no effect on your project (other than eliminating the error).

Generally, any section of a web.config file that serves no purpose doesn't even need to exist in the file. In your case that would include:
>> <appSettings/>
>> <connectionStrings/>

Hope this helps :) Please remember to mark this thread solved once the issue is resolved.
