Hi, I copied a VS.NET project over to a new server, using the "copy project" feature in VS.NET. I made sure that the startup page was correct etc., but now I am getting the error message below when trying to open https://216.201.56.9/test1/formulier I am puzzled.... Server Error in '/test1' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Configuration Error Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately. Parser Error Message: 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 19: "Forms", "Passport" and "None" Line 20: --> Line 21: <authentication mode="Windows" /> Line 22: <!-- AUTHORIZATION Line 23: This section sets the authorization policies of the application. You can allow or deny access Source File: E:WebsitesProost est1formulierweb.config Line: 21 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version Information: Runtime Build:1.0.2914.16; ASP.NET Build:1.4000.2914.16I had that error when I was trying to run from a directory UNDER my virtual directory and not a virtual directory itself. IN other words I was running http://localhost/virtDir/theProj/xxx.asp where virtDir was the IIS virtual directory. Once I made theProj it's own virtDir and references it as http://localhost/theProj/xxx.asp it worked. Good luck! Deanna I had the same problem Was about to do a full reinstall One click and now it goes like a real one !! Thanks Zeg
