While deploying using Visual studio, we may get an error "error occurred in deployment step 'recycle iis application pool' :object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Solution:
 Don't get  panic ..Simply restart the visual studio with the solution which you wanted to deploy on to the site

This may help some one.

Thank you. Could not figure out what the problem was. Started happening after I migrated a project to a new solution.

@praveen Battula: i have gone through your link now.but i checked all those scenarios when i got this issue. Every thing was fine. One thing we should know is, Microsoft never releases its product as fully tested product. It always does user acceptance test. I am not telling this is a SOLUTION. But you can consider it as 'a solution from a lazy person'..:P

Anyways thank you for you post.Keep updating your blog. Move on :)

Programmatically read the value from web.config file

Here is a situation where you need to keep a key value pair element in the web.config file and read them during the run time. I suggest, better keep key /value pair under <appSettings> element and read it programmatically . <appSettings>   <add key=" LicenseKey " value=" 987jKouterhsk " /> </appSettings> Assume , you have added a license key as above in the web.config file. You need the license key during run time. You can access the license key class named "ConfigurationManager". write a property  called getLicenseKey and return the corresponding license key. public string GetLicenseKey {    get{   return  ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[" LicenseKey "]; } } Now the property GetLicenseKey will have the value 987jKouterhsk. Use this value as per your requirement. -Cheers Pradeepa Achar
