Refresh of user.config (should probably be in bug report forum?)

Hi,

just wanted to alert you about a minor annoyance. I use the MySQL version and store the connectionstring in the user.config file. I had typed the database name wrong when trying to run /Setup/Default.aspx to run the install scripts. I corrected the DB name, but it still returned the same error. Only after letting the session (or some other state) time out, it would refresh the user.config.

It would be nice if changes to the user.config (and web.config too perhaps) was monitored and refreshed automatically.

I'm running Win 2003 server SP2 with IIS 6.0

Re: Refresh of user.config (should probably be in bug report forum?)

Hi,

Its in the documentation about Web.config/user.config.

ASP.NET automatically monitors Web.config but not user.config so if you make any change in user.config you need to touch the Web.config (ie type a space in it and save it) to make it reload config settings so it will pick up your changes in user.config.

Hope it helps,

Joe

My bad, now that you're saying it, I remembered seeing it in the docs.
