I followed this article,

My command is:
aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStrings" -app "/myWebSiteName" -site
711831 -prov "RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider"
The error message is: A configuration file cannot be created for the
requested configuration object.
Failed!
ASPNET user is under administrators group
my website is not a virtual directory under default website, that's
why I need to specify the site no.
OS is Windows 2003 server
Am I missing anything?
Thanks in advance

Try to use -location instead of -app -site. App exprected a virtual
path.
aspnet_regiis.exe /?
-pe section Encrypt the configuration section. Optional
arguments:
[-prov provider] Use this provider to encrypt.
[-app virtual-path] Encrypt at this virtual path.
Virtual
path must begin with a forward slash. If it is
'/', then it
refers to the root of the site. If -app is not
specified,
the root web.config will be encrypted.
[-site site-name-or-ID] The site of the virtual
path
specified in -app. If not specified, the default
web site
will be used.
[-location sub-path] Location sub path.
[-pkm] Encrypt/decrypt the machine.config instead
of
web.config.
