I have an error in my XML file.
The error list say: "Application Configuration file "App.config" is invalid. The 'configuration' start tag on line 3 position 2 does not match the end tag of 'rootElement'. Line 25, position 7."

Answer 1

Errors messages are helpful,

when the code is present.

I just tried to look line by line but couldn't spot it right off. I'm almost certain it is something small that is being overlooked.
