Applications built with Iron Speed Designer use your application’s Web.config file for their various configuration parameters, including database and email server connection strings.  Your application’s Web.config file is a standard .NET application file that contains a variety of settings that govern how the application behaves.  In general, the Microsoft IIS web server and other web servers read the Web.config file.

Iron speed Designer automatically creates a Web.config file for your application.  However, you may modify the settings as needed.  If you elect to modify your application’s Web.config file, please bear in mind:

• The XML syntax of the Web.config file must be strictly obeyed.  If your application is unable to load the file for any reason, the settings will not take effect.

• Upon modifying Web.config, Microsoft IIS will automatically restart your application to use the new settings.
