  I looked through the forums but I was unable to find a solution to my issue with RadSpell. We are currently running IIS 6 and I think this issue appeared after moving to .NET 4.0 and enabling MVC. The version of Telerik is 2010.1.519.35.
  
  When I click on the spell check button, the following dialog popup appears:
  
  Web.config registration missing!
  The spellchecking functionality requires a HttpHandler registration in web.config. Please, use the control Smart Tag to add the handler automatically, or see the help for more information.
  
  Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd
  
  
  The Chrome debug shows an HTTP 404 error for:
  
  Requested URL: /Web/Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd
  
  
  The Web.config file shows:
  
          <httpHandlers>
              <remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/>
              <add verb="*" path="*.asmx" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
              <add verb="*" path="*_AppService.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
              <add verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
              <add verb="*" validate="false" path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler, Telerik.Web.UI"/>
              <add verb="*" validate="false" path="Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler, Telerik.Web.UI"/>
              <add verb="*" validate="false" path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource, Telerik.Web.UI"/>
          </httpHandlers>
          <handlers/>
  
  
  Does anyone know how to fix this config issue?
  
  Thanks!

  Hi,
  
  Can you please set the
  
  AjaxUrl="/Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd"
  
  property to the RadSpell declaration and test again.
  
  If you use RadSpell in RadEditor set SpellCheckSettings-AjaxUrl="/Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd", e.g.
  
  <telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" SpellCheckSettings-AjaxUrl="/Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd" DialogHandlerUrl="~/Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.axd" runat="server">
  </telerik:RadEditor>
  
  
  All the best,

  I'm having the same problem with the spell checker. I get the error message about "Web.config registration missing! "
  
  I deleted the entry in my web.config that has the handler and the smart tag option reappeared. Clicked it to add http handlers. Then added the suggested AjaxURL but I'm still getting that error.
  
  I've update my project to the latest version today (before attempting to use the spell check in my project), so I should have the most recent version.
  
  What else could be causing this message to show up?

  Hello,
  
  Open the web.config file and check whether you have runtimeVersionv2.0 in the handler:
  
  <add name="Telerik_Web_UI_SpellCheckHandler_axd" path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode,runtimeVersionv2.0"/>
  
  It should be changed to:
  
  <add name="Telerik_Web_UI_SpellCheckHandler_axd" path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode"/>

  Nope. My config looks like the second one without the runtimeVersion

  Hello,
  
  Try the following:
  
  in the RadSpell declaration:
  <telerik:RadSpell ID="RadSpell1" runat="server" AjaxUrl="~/Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.ashx" HandlerUrl="~/Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.axd" ControlsToCheck="TextBox1" />
  
  and in the web.config file register the handlers as follows:
  
  <httpHandlers>
  <add path="Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler" verb="*" validate="false"/>
  <add path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.ashx" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler" verb="*" validate="false"/>
  
  </httpHandlers>
  
  ...
  
  <system.webServer>
  <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
  <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false"/>
  <handlers>
  <add name="Telerik_Web_UI_DialogHandler_axd" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" path="Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler"/>
  <add name="Telerik_Web_UI_SpellCheckHandler_ashx" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.ashx" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler"/>
  </handlers>
  </system.webServer>
