ASP Error

[timruns]

Hi All,
I have been playing with adding an ASP.NET site on a secondary folder for one of my clients -- to the effect of website.com/newsite/
It was running fine on my local machine, accessing the appropriate SQL Server at Jodo. I copied it all over, and I get this error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Configuration Error

this is the key:
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.

You have the trust level specified in the web.config remove it and will get either a better error, or it will work.

I don't have trust set in that web.config, but it may be inheriting from a parent folder (the primary website).
My understanding is it is a setting in IIS to allow that folder to run as an app, right? I just submitted a ticket in cerebus (AJQ-40379-591).
