Internal Server Error 500.19

[adamf]

I'm just in the process of setting HAP v9.0 on Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.5, followed the instructions have attempted to browse to the site and got an internal server error 500.19 with the following error:

 

This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by default (overrideModeDefault="Deny"), or set explicitly by a location tag with overrideMode="Deny" or the legacy allowOverride="false".

Any ideas what has gone wrong?

You need to replace your web.config file, it's out of date

[adamf]

Replace it with one from where? This one came out of the zip file downloaded from the website.

[nickbro]

Yep, the one in the zip

I copied everything across from the zip to start with. I've done that again, got the same internal server error, but this appears to be the problem:

 

117:

118:

119:

 

So I remove line 118 (maybe that is not what I should be doing) and I end up with the error at the start of the thread.
