There are mainly one of the two reasons why you got this error message.

1. If you have not configured your website virtual directory as application in IIS. Right click on the virtual directory it would have an option as "Convert to Application", select it. Also make sure your site has read,write permission.

2. If above is not problem then there are two or many web.config files exist on your site. Look for any backup folders that you left inside virtual directory, just remove this subfolder & web.config.

One of these would fix your problem.
