We have a WCF Service running fine in IIS 7. We are migrating to Windows 8 server. We deployed the WCF Service in IIS 8. When browsing the SVC File getting the below Configuration Error
There is a duplicate 'system.web.extensions/scripting/scriptResourceHandler' section defined
Config Source section in the Error page
<sectionGroup name="scripting" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingSectionGroup, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35">
<section name="scriptResourceHandler" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingScriptResourceHandlerSection, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" requirePermission="false" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication"/>
<sectionGroup name="webServices" type="System.Web.Configuration.ScriptingWebServicesSectionGroup, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35">

This is caused when using config file meant for 2.0 in 4.0 app pool you can either delete all these sections from your web.config if you don't need it or change app pool to 2.0
