Web.Extensions in web.config

I'm tryying to set up a web site and I get the following error in my web.config when I try to run it. I use VS2008 and framework 3.5.

<add assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>


Thanks,


Rich

 

This is the one I've been using:

 

Which reference libraries do you have in the /bin/ folder?
Also, please post the exact error message you're receiving.
Salute,
Mark

 

The error is below. I only have my application libraries in the bin. Do I need to include the MSFT assemblies? I'm not used to doing that as most of my applications have been deployed on self hosted sites.

Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

You shouldn't but just for kicks put the files in the attachment I've included in this message into your /bin/ folder.
Then restart your site from your DASP Control Panel or just make a change to the root web.config and save it.
Any change, even adding a space then back-spacing, saving the web.config causes a reset.

 

Thanks. I didn't copy your assemblies but marked in my project those references as Copy Local = True. That seemed to resolve the issue. I had forgotten about that property which should allow me to use differrent assemblyversions than what is on the Discountasp.net host.


Rich

 

Thanks for posting that Rich, it should help others in the future.

 

Here is my web.config.

Not sure if it's the same as VS2005 but here's the steps:

See http://kb.discountasp.net/article.aspx?id=10460 for the version information and make changes to your reference accordingly.

Hello RichDadand wisemx,

I have the same problem as RichDan had...but I cannot seem to resolve it...
Can you tell me how did you manage to set the Copy Local = true on your web project...In my VS2008 solution I don't have a folder References to set it...

I also copied the files attached by wisemx to the bin folder but I've got thefollowing error...


Configuration Error Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Thanks,

 

I understand...the version that I used is not installed...I'll wait that for that version to be installed...
Thanks!

 

Im having an issue as well. Here is my web.config file:

Hi,
The error shown is telling you there is a un-needed ending for <location>, just remove that part shown in red.
I trimmed the web.config I posted, it has the versions you need but is not a complete web.config


Salute,
Mark

 

Hi,
Below is the versions I'm successfully using Ajax/ControlToolkit on the IIS7 test server.
Try removing these filesfrom your /bin/ folderThat way theGAC will handle it for you.)
Microsoft.Web.Preview.dll
System.Web.Extensions.Design.dll
System.Web.Extensions.dll
