An attempt was made to change both the AllowOverride and OverrideMode properties, which is not supported for compatibility reasons. |
The AllowOverride property gets or sets a value that indicates whether resources declared inside a location element can be overridden by child configuration files. The OverrideMode property gets or sets a value that specifies similar behavior, but does so for a specific configuration element or group, and uses one of the OverrideMode enumeration values. The OverrideMode property enables behavior to be inherited from a parent element.
You cannot programmatically set both the AllowOverride and OverrideMode property. Setting the AllowOverride property to true sets the OverrideMode property to Inherit. Setting the AllowOverride property to false sets the OverrideMode property to false.
The OverrideMode property is introduced in the .NET Framework version 4.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
