error using 'MachineToApplication'

I am trying to install noCommerce and got this error.


Error  1  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.  C:\BeASPNET\nopCommerce\NopCommerceStore\web.config  95



What I supposed to remove MachineToApplication.

All I did was extract the rar to a folder called NopCommerce

I ran the sql including the update.

Did I miss anything.


Was I supposed to change anything here:

is framework 3.5 installed? Is the application set to run with the correct framework?

Yes,  I went to windows/microsoft.net/framework/ and I see the following.

v1.0.3705
v1.1.4322
v2.0.50727
v3.0
v3.5  <--- its installed

Its not the framework, it has to do with running the application in a properly configured IIS virtual directory. Is that error occuring when running the app from a development environment? My bet is it wont but if you have unzipped and plonked somewere without it being web server managed then you will get this error.

I am using vwd 2008 and trying to run this in a development environment.

That is not possible?

Definitely works in development environment.  I run it from within Visual Studio 2008 all the time.

This is the full error message.
I am in vwd 2008 clicking view in browser.  Is that wrong

Sorry my error.  I am now able to run it.

I have log on to the administration area.

THANKS

Maybe you could share your resolution incase someone esle has the same error.

I am getting the same error on installation.

Would someone document exactly how the application folder structure should look.
Or, if someone has, direct me to where this is written down.

I get this error when trying to run the site from IIS on Windows Vista.
