Got error in asp.net c# while opening my project

Question

i just created a project in asp.net c# while transferring my project to my client i got stuck with this error" 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."

how to overcome with this problem..please guide me...

As the message says, it seems that the directory where your application is located is not declared as a web application in IIS. Declaring the directory as an application might do the trick (in IIS 7.5 web site : right-click the directory => "Convert to Application") — jbl

This is an error when you have place a full web.config in a sub-directory and not on the root directory of your site.

So I say that you have copy your site on a sub-directory, and you need to move it to the root of your site.
