Hi Dojo,

I found an error on some Dashboard due to old web.config file. I did a troubleshooting with this question. My question now is, which are the best practices to update the web.config file? Big problem on it is that the "targetFramework" is outdated.

Thanks!

Hi Daniel

The WebSocket protocol was introduced in .NET framework 4.5. So any of the supported versions from 4.5 onwards can be used. Just don't pick a version that is not installed on the server.

When decided which version you want to target, put it in the targetFramework attribute of the httpRuntime tag, save the file and that's it.

Thanks Gilles!
I suppose that DataMiner restart is needed, right?

When the websocket protocol is already installed and enabled on the server, no restart is needed. Just saving the file should do the trick.
