This error didn't occur in my real Web-site projects on another computer with the same configuration except Windows 8 Pro 32Bit. After changing to a new computer with Windows 8 Pro 64Bit the above mentioned error appeared.

In order to analyse the error I created the simple Web-site project "Test". Starting this very simple application I'm getting the same error message plus "Sys" is undefined.

Searching the Internet I got a lot of proposals to solve the problem, all of them referring to older ASP.NET versions. I'm still left with my problem.

Please help, I'm loosing time and cannot proceed with the development of my real project.

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

Can you repost your code but remove the color coding? To do so, paste it in Notepad first, then wrap it in a pair of code tags using the Code (#) button on the toolbar. Otherwise, this forum messes up your code.

Cheers,

Imar

Hi there,

Looks like you haven't pasted your code in Notepad first? It still looks messed up which makes it impossible to use it and see if the problem can be reproduced.

That said, I don't see anything wrong with this. As far as I can see, it should work. Maybe something in IIS or your main config file is messing something up? Did you install ASP.NET 4 / 4./5 Development under IIS in Programs and Features of Windows?

Hi Imar,

yes I have copied my coloured code into Notepad and enclosed it between # as you can see above.

Yes I have activated Windows-feature ASP.NET 4.5, my application is using the DefaultAppPool that is configured to use .NET framework 4

I'm completely in the air, I have no idea what to do else. Probably I should reinstall Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web ??

>> yes I have copied my coloured code into Notepad and enclosed it between # as you can see above.

But did you then copy it from Notepad? As you can see, the code is messed up. You can't copy it from this web page into a web.config file without lots of issues.

>> Probably I should reinstall Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web ??

Certainly worth a try. Also, reinstalling .NET 4.5 might do the trick.

Hi Imar,

I uninstalled Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web and reinstalled it. The same error message.
As .NET4.5 is integral part of Windows 8 I can't uninstall it.

I suppose the solution should be found in IIS8 but which parameters could cause the error message?

Really hard to say without seeing your machine. Have you seen this post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/...-86c74b9ddfdb/

There are many other posts that deal with the Sys is undefined issue, so you may want to Google a bit more and figure out which one applies to you.

Hi Imar,

I was googling around for a long time and didn't find any appropriate solution for my case. Now I have the following question:

In C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET I find 2 framework-directories "Framework" and "Framework64". As my Web-site application is running under Windows 8 Pro 64Bit I suppose that "Framework64" is the correct directory to follow "v4.0.30319\Config" for finding the correct machine.config and the root web.config to check if there are some missing or incorrect entries.

Confusing is that I find a "test"-directory for my application named "Test" in "Framework\v40.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files as well in "Framework64\Temporary ASP.NET Files.

In which one of the 2 framework-directories are my valid machine.config and web.config file ?

Thanks for help
Herbert

Hi there,

As you guessed, it depends on how you configured your site in IIS. More details can be found here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3...and-how-do-i-v

The temporary copy is just that: a temporary copy. You should always make changes to the web.config located at the root of your site (or any of its sub folders).

Cheers,

Imar
