Hi,

I found this problem when I tested to create a new module and press Build. I used this tutorial (http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN4%5FDevelopmentEnvironment%5FnoIIS/)to build a new module but the error below appeared.. please help me on this one...

Error    101    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:\DotNetNuke462\Website\web.config    58   

Thanks in advance...

-bryan

for some reason VS sometimes puts a web.config file in your module directory. This can cause unexpected errors. Please check if your module directory has a web.config file

That tutorial doesn't actually build a module. What tutorial did you use to actually build your module?

hi Michael,

I used this tutorial for SuperSimple Module creation(http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN_ShowMeThePages/Super_Simple1.htm). I know the error is on the web.config file but the tutorial is made to run also for DNN which is located not on IIS...

<machineKey validationKey="DC655A2092A979BE18512667AAC1745570E54317" decryptionKey="88D83ED22F8439E9C18F51AD2C77F3DD2DBBF30A087C1E2D" decryption="3DES" validation="SHA1" /> ----> this was the line on the web.config file that caused the error...

hope to hear from you soon...

Erik is right. There must be a web.config that is in a module directory that needs to be removed. Search for any web.config other than the one in the main directory and remove it.
