I have a mvc site configured with Elmah, that works properly. but now I want to configure the web service (a sub folder of MVC site ) in IIS  as an application. now when I run the webservice site , I am getting the following error, I have tried to editing web.config within webservice folder without any luck. is there anyone know how to solve the issue?

 

Thanks!

It might that your web service site is inheriting settings from the parent site & while the parent is configured to use ELMAH, the child site does not have ELMAH binaries in its bin directory. If so, you might want to check out inheritInChildApplications in web.config.

Thanks Atif for your response. I have this configuration <location path="elmah.axd" inheritInChildApplications="false">. it seems no effect on the site behavior.

You configured the folder in IIS as a full application.  It needs a bin folder as it cannot find it past the root of the application, not the site.
