virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS?
Hi,
I have an .NET WebApplication running on my machine smoothly. Now I did an XCOPY to have it run on another location on my machine. I have created a new Virtual directory also for this purpose.

But I get the following error on running the application,

Parser Error: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.

Source Error:


Line 7: <compilation defaultLanguage="c#" debug="true" />
Line 8: <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="error.aspx" />
Line 9: <authentication mode="Forms">--HIGHLIGHTED
Line 10: <forms loginUrl="~/Login.aspx" />
Line 11: </authentication>

in Web.config.

If I tried taking the property of VirtualDirectory and clicking the 'Create' Application. But no change is found.

If I delete the Line 9, the same error jumps onto
<SessionState..> tag in Web.config.


Any hints?
Thanks in advance.

Try the NET forum maybe? Is the same NET framework installed on both computers? Are the two computers identical in all other ways? Are the permissions set properly?

Maybe the drive letter is embedded in your coding somewhere?

Thanks Doug,

I could get the issue solved by having the folder which had bin directory set as application thru Properties of the virtual directory.

Hi jap,
I am having similar problem with my .NET web app. Could you please elaborate and write down the steps that you took to register the virtual directory as application in IIS.

I have three items in the 'administrative tools', namely:
Active Directory Domain and Trust
Active Directory Sites and Services
Active Directory Users and Computers

Out of these three, which one should I use to register it as application under IIS.

Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
