Windows Server 2003 Enterprise, IIS6.0 w/AjaxExtensions 1.0, SQLExpress. Getting the following error when trying to install the WebReady version of DC. Can anyone tell me what to do to fix it? Thanks!

system.web.extensions is defined more then once in the config file

Well, then the folks at dashCommerce are putting out bad code if that's the case. I'm using the un-modified web.config file supplied in the WebReady release. And the error is occurring on Line 4 of the file...which is the first time the object is referenced in the file. Here's the file in full...

 

I'm not hearing or seeing this from anyone else, so I'm thinking its environmental. I could be wrong, but the fact that noone else has mentioned it makes me think its environmental.

I am seeing it too. Yes it appears to be environmental, but how and why? You folks seem to blame everything on someone else. Well maybe it is someone else, esp. in this case, but its still not helpfull and does not go to solving anything.

You (the original coders) are the only ones we can hope who would possibly be able to figure out this kind of thing.

Now my info: In two test environments I do not get this error, but in a subfolder on my host (set as a seperate app) I do get it.

Sounds almost like its seeing both webconfigs (in the root app and in the sub app) but no one can verrify this.

Also, I did not use the web-ready - this is my own build of 3.1 without any changes except connection string(of course) and theme.

One more thing - my error is virtually identical - I'll post back if I figure it out.

I've run accross the same error.  In my case it is an issue of the web.config file being inherited from the default web site to the subweb (virtual directory) which I have Dash Commerce installed.

If I remove the web.config from the default web everything runs properly.  There are a number of posts available on the web about web.config inheritance in asp apps - see http://www.kowitz.net/archive/2007/05/16/stopping-asp.net-web.config-inheritance.aspx for example.  However the solutions I've found don't work for this situation.  Currently I'm going to move my default web site to a subweb.
