Hello I'm getting this error:
Compiler Error Message: CS0118: 'Configuration' is a 'namespace' but is used like a 'type' Configuration myWebConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~/");
This code has been in place for 5+ months without this issues, only today after adding this sitemap code do I have this issue.
<siteMap defaultProvider="ExtendedSiteMapProvider" enabled="true">
            <providers>
                <clear/>
                <add name="ExtendedSiteMapProvider" type="Configuration.ExtendedSiteMapProvider" siteMapFile="Web.sitemap" securityTrimmingEnabled="true"/>
            </providers>
        </siteMap>
I tried adding "System.Web." before the "Configuration ", but that did not work either:
System.Web.Configuration myWebConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~/");
Error 1 'System.Web.Configuration' is a 'namespace' but is used like a 'type'
