RE: Question about "Configuration Error" Message

Thanks for your quick response Baho,

So your machine is WINXP sp2 /IIS5.
Currently, I'd suggest you first try changing your ASP.NET's running
process's Account from default machine\aspnet to the LOCALSYSTEM to as to
make sure whether this is a permission problem of the asp.net process
idenitity. To change the process identity, you can follow the below steps:

1. locate the machine.config file under your .NET framework 2.0's intalling
folder like:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG

2. Open the machine.config file and find the <processModel> element, by
default it is configured as:

<processModel autoConfig="true" />

, we need to change it to below:

<processModel autoConfig="true" userName="System"/>

so as to let the ASP.NET worker process running under the local system
account(which has the most powerful permission and privileges on local
system...)

3. Restart IIS through "iisreset" command


Then, test your asp.net 2.0 applicaiton again to see whether it can
works......

Also, this is just for testing only, generally we do not recommend asp.net
process running under local system account. Also, the machine.config's
<processModel> element is used for IIS5 isolate model. For IIS6/win2k3
server, it by default use applicaiton pool model which is different from
this.

Anyway, please have a try to see whether it works and feel free to post
here if there're anything unclear...
