Title Body

I have searched the site, and while I found some very useful information, I couldn't figure out what is going on with my code. I have the following web.config: <?xml version="1.0"?> <configuration> <system.web> </system.web> <system.webServer> </system.webServer> <appSettings> <add key="APIKey" value="23e24c73feed7ca0f6afd876575842de"/> <add key="Secret" value="################################"/> <add key="Callback" value="http://localhost:55994/"/> <add key="Suffix" value="My3Words"/> </appSettings> </configuration> I have snipped out the stuff in system.web and system.webServer, but it's the default settings generated in an ASP.NET MVC app. I am trying to access the keys in the section (this is a simple Facebook application using FB Connect). In my code, I have the following line: return ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["APIKey"]; and it is returning a null. I can't quite figure out what is going on. I have the requisite: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.Mvc; using System.Web.Mvc.Ajax; using System.Configuration; at the top of my .cs file. I have a very strong suspicion the error exists post-keyboard (i.e. in my brain), but I can't solve this one. Any ideas?
