Hi
I'm having a problem upgrqading my DNN installation to 4.8 from 3.3.7

1) I have unzipped and installed the 4.8 installation files over the existing data.

2) I have changed the new web.config file to point to the correct database and updated the validation and decryption keys

3) I have updated the application in IIS to run .Net 2.0 and selected an appropriate App Pool

When I run the application I get the following, which is really strange.

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.

Parser Error Message: An XML comment cannot contain '--', and '-' cannot be the last character. Line 46, position 5.

Source Error:

Line 44: 		<add key="EnableCachePersistence" value="false"/>
Line 45: 		<add key="HostHeader" value="" />
Line 46: 		<!-- Host Header to remove from URL so "www.mydomain.com/johndoe/Default.aspx" is treated as "www.mydomain.com/Default.aspx" -->
Line 47: 		<add key="RemoveAngleBrackets" value="false" />
Line 48: 		<!--optionally strip angle brackets on public login and registration screens-->

Source File: D:\Intranet\web.config    Line: 46

Server Error in '/Intranet' Application.

Configuration Error

 


Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.1433; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.1433

 

This is a really strange error unless I have missed something. I have successfully upgraded 3.3.7 to 4.x including 4.8.0 in the recent past. Can anyone help please?

Thanks
