Hi,
I am not quite sure how to set the step 7 of the 'getting set the site up' fot the sample file
Step 7:
Open Machine.Config (by default in C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\CONFIG) in a text editor, find the <processModel> section, and set the userName attribute to "SYSTEM". This is required to enable event logging in ASP.NET Applications -- which we use in our custom error handling.

and I get the following error, please help

Thanks,
Sillygiu

Hey,

Change to type="System"

Brian

Thanks, Brian,
I changed the type=system to type="system". I don't get the machine.config error any more. According to step 7 : [and set the userName attribute to "SYSTEM".] I don't know if the section name should be "ThePhile" ? I just guess.

But I still have different error:(I try to fix by going to .Net Framework Configuration--> Run time security Policy --> machine --> allcode : to add a new name "localhost" and grant its permission to Fulltrust. The fix didn't work for me)

Hey,

Your type probably needs to be something in appearance of:

type="System.Web.Configuration.ProcessModelConfigu rationHandler, System.Web, Version=1.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"

But it needs to be the link to your component, which you may need to put in the GAC. The first part should be the path to the component, and the second part is the name of the assembly. The remaining parts are version, key, and current culture type.

Hi,bmains,

I am totally lost about what to do. I am very new to ASP.net
I try to set up the sample project the book provides - "ThePhile".
According to the instruction step 7 it says "Open Machine.Config (by default in C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\CONFIG) in a text editor, find the <processModel> section, and set the userName attribute to "SYSTEM". This is required to enable event logging in ASP.NET Applications -- which we use in our custom error handling"

I don't have any idea. I add line 34 after line 33 "processModal".
I even don't know if it is what I am supposed to do. Please help.

Thanks

Hey,

I think you need to change the <processModel> element, and not add a section. The section area defines the DLL's that interact with the elements in the configuration file (sort of).

Search for <processModel in the machine.config, then change the userName and password properties.

Remove your code.

Brian

Hi, Brian,

After I Search for <processModel in the machine.config, how to change the userName and password properties. (I see :

section name="processModel" type="System.Web.Configuration.ProcessModelConfigu rationHandler, System.Web, Version=1.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" allowDefinition="MachineOnly"/>

Thanks

Hey,

You still are in the section, which defines the DLL used to represent the processModel component in the framework. Go way beyond this and search further. You need to look for a:

<process model ...with many attributes...>

In the file.
