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.

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
