    Just installed Umbraco 7 and getting web.config error

    I have just installed umbraco 7 on my localhost - windows 7 machine

    When I try to browse the site I get web.config error saying:

    The configuration section 'system.web.extensions' cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration

    I can't find any solution to that. Can anyone help?

    In my application pool for the site it in properties: .net framework 2.0 Integrated but in web.config it says targetFramework="4.0"

    Not sure this has any importance.

    Thanks

    I'm not sure if that error is showing up as a result of that entirely, but a good start would be setting the server up for Umbraco 7's system requirements (pulled from the doc page):

    Umbraco 7.x.x

    • IIS 7+ (II6 may still work but is untested)
    • SQL CE, SQL Server 2008 (Express and higher)
    • ASP.NET 4.5 Full-Trust
    • Ability to set file permissions to include create/read/write (or better) for the user that "owns" the Application Pool for your site (NETWORK SERVICE, typically)

    I had those settings. Thanks

    However my app pools was set to framework 2.0 as I said above so I changed it to version 4 and it worked.
