Web Config file stops project from working after starting to user Ajax

Hello,

I have just installed the ajax extensions and have tried to convert one of my previous applications to an ajax compatible one by changing the web config file. I watched the video on moving

from a standard application to an ajax one and changed the web config accordingly but it still doesnt work.When i create an ajax application from scratch it works but when i copy paste its

web config to my current project i keep on getting this error:

Error 1 C:\Documents and Settings\D\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\Portal\Default.aspx: ASP.NET runtime error: The 'configuration' start tag on line 10 does not match the end tag of 'system.web'. Line 95, position 4. (C:\Documents and Settings\D\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\Portal\web.config line 95) C:\Documents and Settings\Engin\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\Portal\Default.aspx 1 1 C:\...\Portal\

Error 3 The 'configuration' start tag on line 10 does not match the end tag of 'system.web'. Line 95, position 4. (C:\Documents and Settings\Engin\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\Portal\web.config line 95)

I just tried this web.config and didn't have any problems. Maybe try reinstalling AJAX and see if that fixes it.

Thank you for your reply and trying the file, i also managed to make it work by copying the web config to another file and pasting the entries one by one back to the web config.

I dont know how it got solved but it is working.
