Missing a virtual directory but which one - MachineToApplication error.

UJ
I am in the process of deploying my .NET 1.1 app from a test server over to
our cluster. I think I have everything set up correctly but when I start the
app, when I get past my login page, I get the following 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.
The problem is - I don't know what virtual directory it is looking for. I've
made sure I have all the same setting on the test machine as the final
machine but to no avail.

TIA - Jeff.

You haven't configured the physical directory as an IIS application.
Use the server's IIS Manager to do that.

It doesn't mater what name you give it, although using the same
name which your local application has makes things easier.

Actually I deleted the entire web site in IIS, created it again and verified
that the 'home' is set as an application.

This machine is actually a cluster - is there anything I need to do because
of that?

TIA - Jeff.
