    Here is the procedure to Create a Web.config File
     

    You can create a Web.config file by using a text editor such as Notepad. You must create a text file that is named Web.config in the root directory of your ASP.NET application. The Web.config file must be a well-formed XML document and must have a format similar to the %SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\%VersionNumber%\CONFIG\Machine.config file.

    The Web.config file must contain only entries for configuration items that override the settings in the Machine.config file. At a minimum, the Web.config file must have the <configuration>element and the <system.web> element. These elements will contain individual configuration elements.

    The following example shows a minimal Web.config file:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <configuration>
    <system.web>

    </system.web>
    </configuration>
    The first line of the Web.config file describes the document as XML-formatted and specifies the character encoding type. This first line must be the same for all .config files.

    The lines that follow mark the beginning and the end of the <configuration> element and the<system.web> element of the Web.config file. By themselves, these lines do nothing. However, the lines provide a structure that permits you to add future configuration settings. You add the majority of the ASP.NET configuration settings between the <system.web> and </system.web> lines. These lines mark the beginning and the end of the ASP.NET configuration settings.
