The error cause you opened the website as parent folder just select inner folder as open website. Cause you root web.config file gone as child web.config file which is not allowed. just in your IIS provide physical path like E;\Stores_Management\StoresManagement--->Select this folder not higher level i.e. Stores_Management.

Hi,

Try like this,

just set

< authentication mode="None" /> or else,=> Open IIS from command prompt or Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services

=> Find the folder for your project on IIS.

=> Right click on folder, click on Properties

=> On Directory tab, you will see the "Application Name" towards the end. Click on the Create button. If its already created, click on Remove then click on Create to recreate it.
