In Dreamweaver, I created a Login Page and configured it for forms authentication. When I build and browse the page I get:

Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser 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.

Source Error:


Line 9: <system.web>
Line 10: <customErrors mode="Off" />
Line 11: <authentication mode="Forms">
Line 12: <forms name = " .ASPXAUTH " loginUrl="Login.aspx">
Line 13: <credentials />


Source File: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\LeanSigma-ASP\web.config Line: 11

How do you setup your virtual directory to be configured as an application in IIS???

Thanks,
Jim

Go to the directory in IIS manager, right-click on it, select properties.
Under the "Directory" tab, click "Create" button. This will create it as an application.

I right clicked My Computer, clicked "Manage", found the directory under IIS, right clicked the file....but there is no "Directory Tab" or "Create" button?

What am I doing wrong?

Oops. Ok I found it.

But now, I get the following error:

Parser Error
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: File or assembly name DreamweaverCtrls, or one of its dependencies, was not found.

Source Error:

Line 2: <%@ Register TagPrefix="MM" Namespace="DreamweaverCtrls" Assembly="DreamweaverCtrls,version=1.0.0.0,publicK eyToken=836f606ede05d46a,culture=neutral" %>

Line 4: id="dsLogin"


Source File: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\LeanSigma-ASP\Login.aspx Line: 2


Any help would be great.
Thx.
Jim

Not to be a smart guy or anything, but the error messages says it all:

"File or assembly name DreamweaverCtrls, or one of its dependencies, was not found."

What are you missing? Is everything compiled? Assemblies in the right place?
