Hi,
I have an ASP.NEt Web.config file that I'm trying to update - in my case sessionState - the file looks like:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
<system.web>
<sessionState mode="StateServer" stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424" cookieless="false" timeout="22"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

the writexml step fails when the xmlns=... attribute present on the configuration element - if I remove that xmlns attribute, it works fine - I tried to add Namespace alias to namespace URI mappings but it doesn't like xmlns as an alias.

any way to do this update without removing the namespace?

Thanks
Dave
