'MachineToApplication' beyond application level Error

[kjewell23]

That didn't work either. Would this have anything to do with it.
Error 1 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:\Documents and Settings\kjewell\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\myCLARK\uploads\web.config 54

I've never encountered this error before....
Does this thread help you?

Do you have 2 web.config files in your project by any chance?

I only have 1 web config file.. I checked that thread and its just shows my code that I have posted on the previous post

Could you please post your web.config's line 54 (maybe better if you posted the section that contains that line)

Thanks

The <authentication> section enables configuration
of the security authentication mode used by
ASP.NET to identify an incoming user.

It seems like this problem is common to upgrades from VS2003 to VS2005....
The most common problem is that Visual Studio creates a Backup of the VS2003 ( .NET 1.1) web application inside of the VS2005(.NET 2.0) web application.
So there are 2 web.config files in the project (even though the second one is within a sub directory of the first project).

The MachineToApplication is handled by the web.config file and you should not configure the MachineToApplication settings in any of the the subdirectories.
The MachineToApplication settings (web.config) should be in your Application's root, and these settings will be inherited in the subdirectories.

Please double check that you do not have another web.config file hidden within a subdirectory in your project and get back to me.
