    Server Application Error

    HI,

    After successfully developing a webapp on the Visual Studio, when I tried to deploy my asp.net application through a virtual directory under IIS, I get the following error:

    "Server Application Error
    The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the
    processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail
    information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance."

    I am running my app under Windows XP Pro with ASP.Net V2.0 and IIS v5.1

    Please help.
    Thanks
    Hameed

      The event log under system tab says:'

      The server failed to load application '/LM/W3SVC'. The error was 'The specified metadata was not found.
