    Unrecognized configuration section system.web.extensions.

    HELP ME!!!

    (It wont help that im new at asp .net, but it seems to be able to amazing things and i really want to get to grips with it)

    I have an asp .net server package with 1&1 and im trying to put Umbraco on it. Since i place files on the server by ftp and allow "applications" by using there in browser file uploading tool. Also for using my mySQL databases i am not able to access them "off site".

    Now than the backgroud is layed out here is my issue. I downloaded the full 4.5 ZIP and placed all files within the "build" folder onto my server. I then try to access the site via the url http://www.whizzkidz-servers.co.uk/um/ and i recive this error:

    Hi Matthew,

    I remember having a similar problem once, I think it was because the <system.web.extension> section was not at the right place (after <system.web>), might be worth a check however seems highly unlikely if it's a fresh download.

    Do you know which version of .Net your 1&1 environment is using? Do you have an idea if ASP.Net AJAX is installed?

    Oh wait, found it when I browsed to your page:

    Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.3607; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.3614

    I'm afraid the current version 4.5 requires at least .Net framework 3.5 to work. In that case you should use the previous version 4.0.4.2 which can be downloaded here:

    http://umbraco.codeplex.com/releases/view/37337

    Best regards,

    Sascha

    Hi Matthew,

    Which download did you use from the Codeplex site?  I had the same problem when I tried using the one labeled "Umbraco 4.5 Binaires".  The first thing I tried was to add the section like @Saascha said, but then I ran into another issue and it said it didn't recognize the ASP.Net 4.0 assemblies. I only have .Net 3.5 on my server at this point. So then I downloaded the "Umbraco 4.5 WebDeploy for .NET 2.0/3.5" and just used the files in that the Umbraco folder within that .Zip to upgrade and that worked.

    Oh, the other thing you could do is switch to an AppPool that is using the .Net 4.0 Framework if you have it installed.  I forgot to mention that that should work, too.

    Hope that helps,
    Brad
