IIS 7 Error relating to allowDefinition='MachineToApplication'

$

I have an application that has been running without issue on IIS 6.0 Win2003. I have now reinstalled this application into Win2008 IIS 7.5 and upon accessing the website I am presented with the following 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."

It highlights a line in my web.config file : "<authentication mode="Forms">"

I can vaguely remember recving this is IIS 6.0 and the reason was because the folder was not set as an applictaion, therefore I simply accessed the properties and clicked 'Create'. I have however userd the 'View Applications' section and this folder is listed as an application. Is there something I have missed or somewheer else I can check this as I'm a bit stuck !!

 

Thanks in advance

Tim.
