I downloaded a testing website code from a site and I converted it to visual studio 2008. But, I get the compilation error as follows:

“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.”

Anyone, solve the problem plz??!!

    It depends how your are running the application.

    If your running it thro the temp asp.net webserver which starts when you run any application from the VS2008

    or

    Configure the web apps in your system IIS.

    You might be getting this error because, the application need to configure in the local IIS
    instead of temp. asp.net web server. So move the application files into the Inetpub/wwwroot folder. And configure it as the web application before running.
