Shared SSL Not Working

[Mike Legg]

When we try to access a site using shared SSL on our Plesk 11 Windows server, we get the error -

HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error
The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.

Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions
Config File \\?\[Drive]:\Inetpub\vhosts\[ssldomain]\httpdocs\web.config

I understand why it's erroring - there is no web.config file it's a ColdFusion site and doesn't need one. (ASP.Net is disabled)

Does anyone know why it's even looking for a web.config file?

I fixed the problem by enabling ASP.Net on the domain.

For the sake of security, I prefer to disable technologies that aren't being used, but it looks like if your using shared SSL ASP.Net is a required technology.
