title: path with a dot in web.config <location>
body: <p>I need to add a location element in my web.config file, but the path starts with a dot (and I don't think I can change that path, it's for <a href="http://letsencrypt.org">letsencrypt</a> automation).</p>
  
  <p>If I let the dot, like in <code>&lt;location path=".well-known/acme-challenge"&gt;&lt;/location&gt;</code>, the site doesn't start at all (I think the web.config file is not parsed at all because I get the page asking me to configure customErrors, but it is already configured and usually works fine)</p>
  
  <p>If I remove the dot, like in <code>&lt;location path="well-known/acme-challenge"&gt;&lt;/location&gt;</code> the web.config file is correctly loaded, but of course that doesn't help me to configure anything at the location I wish.</p>
  
  <p>The final goal is to disable basic authentication (which I need for the rest of the site) on this path only ; I don't even know if I'll be able to set this up in a <code>&lt;location&gt;</code> element.</p>
