I tried to install ModSecurity for IIS 10 and use it for my asp.net websites, the problem is when I want to add the <ModSecurity...> element at the level of the <web.server>....</web.server> element it displays an error with this message:

The <web.server> element has an invalid child element

  • Please read https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask and create a [MVCE](https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve) in your question so that it can be easily reproduced – Avery Apr 11 '19 at 10:42
  • Clearly the extension has documentation, https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/wiki/Reference-Manual-%28v2.x%29#installation-for-microsoft-iis – Lex Li Apr 11 '19 at 13:22

Try using <system.webServer> instead of <web.Server>. The former is not part of IIS configuration.
