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.

In .Net configuration files, there are <section> elements which have a
number of attributes, one of which is the "allowDefinition" attribute. This
attribute defines where this configuration section is allowed to be defined.
When a configuration section has this element set to "MachineToApplication"
it means that the section can appear in the machine.config file, and in
application-level web.config files, which can overrule the machine.config
settings on an individual web basis. You can put a web.config file in a
sub-folder of an application; however, you can not have any sections with
"allowDefinition" attribute set to "MachineToApplication" in them. Only the
web.config file in the root folder of the web application can have these
sections in it.
