NopCommerce 1.9 - machine.config error

Hello,

I've uploaded NopCommerce 1.9 designed for .NET 4. I have set site as .NET 4 and tried to run the NopCommerce installer (which works on my desktop).

Unfortunately i'm getting a config error on the machine.config !

I don't have access to machine.config. Looks like account not configured correctly?

Thanks for help.

Similar Problem...

Hi,

I have a simialr problem after migrating to a new server. Just wondering why I need to update my config file when it worked fine on the old server? Is there anything server related that can be updated? i.e. the machine.config file?

Thanks.

 

The machine.config is going to be a little different everywhere, so an application working on one server but not another isn't unusual.

We cannot make changes to machine.config to accommodate specific users. That configuration has to be consistent across all of the web servers.
