Refer - URL rewrite - web.config error[^].

Quote:
Make sure your <rewrite> is enclosed in the <system.webServer></system.webServer> section.

Also - The configuration section 'rewrite' cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration[^].

Quote:
That means that URL Rewrite isn't installed on the web server. You can install it from www.iis.net, search for URL Rewrite and it should be at the top.

Well normally that means that you do not have a line in your configsections part declaring the section before it starts.

Look at the 'declaring custom configuration sections' part of this article Understanding Section Handlers - App.config File[^]

Install the rewrite module on the webserver and that error should go away:
