Please confirm that the virtual directory you are attempting to access is
configured as an application. Was there any additional information
associated with the exception incidating a config error for example?
If your vdir is setup as an application, then ensure that ASP.Net is setup
correctly on the IIS server that's throwing this error. I've seen instances
where ASP.Net is not setup correctly, for a number of reasons. Refer to the
aspnet_regiis utility documentation for repairing an ASP.Net install. Here's
a brief summary should you find yourself at this point:
• If IIS and Visual Studio.Net 2003 have been installed on a computer the
open up the Visual Studio 2003 Command prompt and type the following:
aspnet_regiis –i
• If IIS is missing and Visual Studio.Net 2003 is already installed then
install IIS and insert Disk 1 of VS.Net and select the repair/add features
option (generally faster that uninstall\reinstall). Once completed, open up
Visual Studio.Net 2003 command prompt and type: aspnet_regiis –i
• If no IIS and no Visual Studio.Net 2003, install IIS then install Visual
Studio.Net 2003. Everything should work after that.
