Avoid web.config inheritance in child web application using inheritInChildApplications
- by Blankman
I am trying to add
<location inheritInChildApplications="false">
to my parent web application's web.config but it doesn't seem to be working.
My parent's web.config has:
<configuration>
<configSections>
</configSections>
// 10 or so custom config sections like log4net, hibernate,
<connectionStrings>
</connectionStrings>
<appSettings>
</appSettings>
<system.diagnostics>
</system.diagnostics>
<system.web>
<webParts>
</webParts>
<membership>
</membership>
<compilation>
</compilation>
</system.web>
<location ..>
<system.web>
</system.web>
</location>
<system.webServer>
</system.webServer>
My child web application is setup as an application in IIS, and is inheriting from the parent's web.config which is causing problems.
Where exactly should I place the
<location inheritInChildApplications="false">
so it ignores all the various web.config settings?
