Gets or sets a value that specifies whether Web applications on the computer are deployed in retail mode.

public:
 property bool Retail { bool get(); void set(bool value); };

[System.Configuration.ConfigurationProperty("retail", DefaultValue=false)]
public bool Retail { get; set; }

[<System.Configuration.ConfigurationProperty("retail", DefaultValue=false)>]
member this.Retail : bool with get, set

Public Property Retail As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if Web applications are deployed in retail mode; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Attributes: ConfigurationPropertyAttribute

Examples

The following configuration file example shows how to set this property to true in the machine.config file. The machine.config file is located in this folder:

%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\<frameworkversion>\Config

<system.web>  
  <deployment   
    retail="true" />  
</system.web>

Remarks

When Retail is true, ASP.NET disables trace output, disables debug capabilities, and disables detailed system-generated error messages for remote users. For applications that have a customErrors element in the application Web.config file, the mode attribute is forced to On. These settings override any settings that are made in application Web.config files.

Note

When you use the retail setting, you should continue to set the debug attribute to false in application Web.config files that are deployed to the server. The debug setting disables request execution timeout, and this is not overridden by the retail setting. For more information, see.
