The message that I receive is "the requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid" (500.19, error code 0x80007000d).
After removing utf-8, or adding utf-16 to the xml root node in the web.config, IIS then serves pages. Where is the code page set for the site, as I've never run into this issue before?
Thank you, Stephen
web.config
file have a BOM set? I can imagine that if the BOM conflicted with the XML root nodeencoding
attribute, it could upset things.
