Error on Login.aspx page regarding AppConfig file not loading
Problem reported by Todd Gordon - 1/24/2014 at 11:43 AM
Resolved
Around the same time we discovered low hard drive space on our server (Windows 2008 R2 - 64bit - smarterstats 8.x) we also realized that we were getting:

Any idea where I should start?  I don't have the installer any more so if that's a place to go, can you tell me where to find it??

We recommend that you run SmarterStats in IIS instead of the default web server.  The default web server is designed for installation and configuration only.  IIS is more robust.  Here is a knowledge base article on how to set that up.

Thanks for the reply. We are running SS via IIS and the default SS web server is off/disabled. I did go ahead and run through the KB article to ensure we were not missing anything. 
 
Additionally, we managed to locate our installer. We have run through the repair and also have removed and re-installed. 
 
Any additional thoughts? The above error still remains.

The error you're getting is saying that the file appconfig.xml in the [Install]\MRS\App_Data\Config folder is corrupted somehow.  Probably, the system tried to write it and the drive was full. 
 
My recommendation would be to take a look at that file.  If you don't have a lot of sites configured, the easiest thing to do is to delete that file, then restart IIS.  You may also have to follow the instructions in http://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2474/secure-link-broken-issues
