Errors when trying to compile and run my VS2005 / ASP.NET 2.0 website in VS2008 / ASP.NET 3.5.

Author Name Status Posted Time Hakim Buknok 5/20/2008 2:29:40 AM Author is Offline HI, I get the following errors when trying to compile and run my VS2005 / ASP.NET 2.0 website in VS2008 / ASP.NET 3.5. 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:\Users\Admin\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\WebSites\smk7\Backup\smk7\web.config 95   I thought it had something to do with not creating a virtual directory called 'smk7' and then registering it as an application in IIS 7, but after I did this it still did not work.  I also noticed that two sample websites I made from scratch in .NET 3.5 did not appear as virtual directories or applications anywhere in IIS 7.  Can anyone help me with these issues?  Maybe there are multiple versions of IIS on my machine?  I am running Windows Vista Ultimate. The errors are sent in the next posting.

Thanks Post Comments Re: Yeah! Hakim Buknok 5/20/2008 4:55:16 AM Yes, I am logged in using admin.  Do I have to use "Run As Administrator" just like I had to do in VS2005? Post Comments Re: Try running VS as administrator Zala Eberle 5/20/2008 4:56:12 AM Yes, try running VS as administrator since even lo gging on as admin does not necessarily mean you r un elevated.
