I get the following configuration error when I try to install a new 4.09.02 site.


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:

you are probably trying to install dnn as a child application of another ASP.NET application. This is not impossible, but hard to do. You'd better install dnn in its own web site

No, this is the only ASP involved.  There is an empty  folder above the site which is provided to deposit the old html site while the new site is being built.  We will use a permanent redirect after the new site is up.  We have done this with several sites in the past with good results.

Erik,

I took your advice which was obviously correct, because I got further before it broke.  I checked to make sure that the db had no tables, then I uploaded all of the files to the root directory.  I then ran the same install command and finally saw the following screen:

This is not the wizard with which I am familiar.

When I try to go to www.kangaroojakes.com,, I see the following:

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden

The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.

Can you advise me one more time?
