Why is Document getting Unrecognized attribute 'limitXPathComplexity' exception?

Daniel McCann

When I run Document local I am getting the following exception at runtime: ConfigurationErrorsException Unrecognized attribute 'limitXPathComplexity'. Note that attribute names are case-sensitive. (D:\data\Cobalt Document\Development\Document\Document\web.config line 18) I have been able to run Document locally in the past without any problems.

From Ann Tellers: There is a known issue with Document that you can’t run .net 4.5 because of this problem. This was reported to Microsoft and a patch was sent. It’s attached. From:

I recently installed .Net 4.5 since StaticContent requires it. This might be related.

Note that the hotfix doesn't fix the complexity problem, it simply removes the complexity check. The ultimate problem is that Document stylesheets are too large. There is also a new issue in .NET 4.5 XSLT transform when there are too many elements in a parent. I had to make a fix for preformatted documents because the rendering time went from a few seconds to 15+ minutes.
