Hi,
There Are Mainly One of the Two Reason Why you Got this Error Message.

1. If you Have Not configured your asp.net application in IIS. If you have not Configure your application to run on IIS First Configure your Site to Run on IIS.For that Create Virtual Directory From IIS and Give Permission to Application (Read,Write)

2. If Above is Not Problem Then There are Mainly Problem of Two or many Web.Config Exists on your Site.When you Open Some Site and if Software Crate Backup of that Application then Software mainly Do Create Subfolder and Copy All Files + Web.Config in Application.Just Remove this Subfolder web.config from Subfolder.

Regards,
Iftikar

Hi Nizam,
Sometimes this error occurs when you open the application folder and there is one more folder level to the application files ie webconfig.

There are two reasons for this.

1. Virtual directory not configured in IIS
Make sure your application is configured as an application in IIS.

2. Two or more web.config files.
Do you have more than one web.config in your application?
