Sounds like your application is running in a folder below another
application. You need to create it as an application in IIS (so it
looks like a virtual directory) - otherwise you can't change certain
settings such as the authentication mode.

Let me know if that makes sense.

PS - it's pretty easy to 'create' it as an application in IIS.

Right click on the folder (in IIS Administration), choose Properties,
and hit the Create button.

The virtual directory already this servant but it still continues the same
mistake.

I could not get rid of this errror so I deleted the line and now my system
works fine.

Not sure I would recomend this though as I am a new user, and this may have
hidden affects.
