I've also tried different variations of "", " ", (""), (" "), as well as putting it inside the first tag at the end of the string, all return variations of the same error. Please elaborate. cheers Martyn
I couldnt help but reply, maybe people are still trying this, who knows. When someone says "add a space" what they mean is RESAVE the file. Doing this will give the web.config a new time stamp, which will cause the web application to restart with the new "configuration" in web.config. I have found using notepad simply loading and saving the file is good enough, no changes to the text need to be made. More importantly, adding this ---> " " <----- to your web.config wont fix it, it will create more errors.
I feel for people, who at the advice of real experts will add "a set of double quotes and a space" to the web.config file and think thats going to fix it.
