    Install error

    Im attempting to install the latest Umbraco version on my local machine.

    I opted for the IIS option so have unzipped the download files to my inetpub/wwwroot folder then added a new site in IIS to point to this and set the correct application pool (ASP.NET 4.0).

    As per the instructions i also added an entry in my HOSTS file for this site.

    However on loading localhost/myUmbracoSite in the browser i get this error:

    Server Error in '/' Application.

    Configuration Error

    Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately. 

    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: 

    Line 86:       of SQL Server (including SQL Azure and SQL  Compact) instead of to SQL Server Express.
    Line 87:       -->
    Line 88:     <sessionState mode="InProc" customProvider="DefaultSessionProvider">

    How do i resolve this?

    Hi, did you get the install done ok?  Did everything install.  Try setting IIS_IUSRS permissions on the root folder of the site :).  Charlie
