Virtual directory not set?? or it's something else

See more: (untagged)

Hi there, i'm greatful if anyone can help me with it.

i'm stuck with this error, trying to get to working but to no avail.

Error 102 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. ...\Web.config 389


i read lots of the posts but the solutions offered there did not resolve my problem.

here is what i've tried.

when i try to build the app it fails with this error.

i copy the app folder in intepub\wwwroot, then in IIS manager convert it to application and set the virtual folder. if i try to browse to it from iis it kind of works but i still get the same error in visual studio and i can debug it.

i have checked the .net version, it's correct.

there is only one web.config

maybe i'm missing something loading the app in visual studio (btw i'm using VS.net 2008, IIS 7, .net framework 2.0 as the application was build with in this version)

many thanks
