When I just want to simply open the web.config application file (IIS 7.5, Windows 7 x64) or make some changes to it using PowerShell commands, which do not have to do anything with the "protocolMapping" section, the following error: "Error:" the section "Protocol Configuration" cannot be read because the section declaration is missing. "
Exactly the same commands work fine on IIS 8, but I also need to work on IIS 7.5. What could be the problem?
Things I've already tried and DO NOT solve the problem:
- Framework applicationPool running application installed on v4.0
- also DefaultAppPool is set to v4.0 (however, the application has a separate applicationPool)
[UPDATE]
This error occurs on several computers running Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit), even with a new installation of Windows 7.
