as your error messages shows that "This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.", so please check your IIS where you host this application is it configured as Application or not, the error shows that your virtual directory is not configured as application, if so then right click on your virtual directory in IIS and select Convert to Application, then try to browse it again.

Solution 2

The above error message indicates that there is a Web.config file in one of the website's subfolders than has one of these configuration elements that cannot be defined beyond the application level.
