    Umbraco backoffice login error

    In some cases suddenly I cant open Umbraco login page and my members cant login from they frontend login pages.

    This is the error:

    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.

    And the error is gone when I comment this line: https://cdn.livechat-static.com/api/file/lc/att/7186871/12cd480fe11ea7d4372831cb7c038690/config_file.jpg

    Why this things get happening? Same thing happens to both Umbraco 7 and Umbraco 8.

    Anybody else got that issue?

    Hi Josip,

    This is not a standard handler that is shipped with Umbraco v7 or v8. Any reason for adding this handler and the logic inside it i.e. causing the issue?

    Hi Josip,

    BockViewHandler that you have commented in the screenshot is not included in standard Umbraco installation.

    So, wanted to understand how does that got added?

    Did you get a solution for this? I am facing similar error on deploying the site to a hosting provider.

    There could be different reasons which cause this problem but I dont have problem with it since I am using CI/CD for changes on web.config and other files. I think that in my case the reason was changing web.config settings through plesk interface.

    I guess same issue. Re-deployed on a different folder and it worked fine. Also had to keep the debug=true setting on to load the backoffice.
