    Unable to cast object of type 'System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingProfileServiceSection' to type 'System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingProfileServiceSection'


    After upgrading from Q2 to Q3 following the instructions on the website (basically removing the version component from the telerik controls in the web.config and dropping the new DLLs in my bin directory I get this error message. I'm really hoping the upgrade will resolve my dialog problem (dialogs fail which is not surprising since I'm taking 404s on my calls into Dialoghandler.aspx and i"m hoping hte new DialogHandler.axd will work better).

    Any clues to help me move forward on this?

    Hi Stephen,

    Try restarting your Visual Studio first. Often when upgrading, VS keeps a cached older version, that could cause such problem.
    If the problem still persists, please open a support ticket and send us your application so we can check it - we will do our best to help.


    All the best,

    This is sort of strange but I "think" that the cause of the problem was this line
    <configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
    in my web.config. Once I removed the xmlns attribute it helped. Now I can't be positive because I changed a bunch of stuff but I went back and undid a lot and I think this is what was giving me a problem. Don't have time to go and try it again but I thoght I'd put this out here in case anyone else gets this problem and can't fix it.

    I can approve this.

    I had the same issue with 'System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingProfileServiceSection'

    After I deleted ' xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0" 'from '<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">' in my web.config, my applications runs fine again and I haven't found any problems so far.

    Hello Stephen,

    Could you please also check what is the exact version of the Telerik.Web.UI.dll file (for the .NET Framework (2.0 or 3.5)) that is present in your project?

    Best wishes,

    Im experiencing the same issue however I do not have the 'xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0"' in my config to remove and make the magic happen.

    Please advise.

    Thanks

    After looking at the 3.5 config sample included in the RadControlsExample solution, I noticed that my project(MVC) did not contain the following config section. To be honest, I've never even seen this used in my 7+ of .Net development...learn something everyday.

    </system.web>
    <runtime>
    <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
    <dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Extensions" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
    <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-1.1.0.0" newVersion="3.5.0.0" />
    </dependentAssembly>
    <dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Extensions.Design" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
    <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-1.1.0.0" newVersion="3.5.0.0" />
    </dependentAssembly>
    </assemblyBinding>
    </runtime>

    I also had the same issue and removing xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0" from the <configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0"> tag solved the problem for me as well.

    Thanks for posting your fix!

    This worked for me too, thank you.  I'm developing on Vista 64 bit with IIS.
