This is the error what I am getting once I remove the above web.config.

A critical error has occurred.
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. (D:\sites\DNN\Developments\DotNetNuke_2\Website\desktopmodules\store\providers\web.config line 31)

 

This is only for Store admin module. If I remove this  (D:\sites\DNN\Developments\DotNetNuke_2\Website\desktopmodules\store\providers\web.config ) file again it is giving an error. can you help me please.

Why Am I getting this error? is it normal ? what should I do to avoid this situvation. I am using VS 2008. is it a problem ?
