The error mesage tells you that :
"This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS."
You are trying to use Forms authentication in a directory
which is not configured as an application or, at least, as a virtual directory.

Why is this being caused and what is the solution? I am using a book that teaches ASP.NET 2.0 but trying out the
example codes on my ASP.NET 3.5 running the development server instead of IIS. What is the solution?
WEB.CONFIG says:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="Default.aspx"></forms>
</authentication>
The error message says:
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.
