Hello first let me apologize in advance if this is a repeat or trivial question as I am not very experienced in the webserver/IIS world.

I have recently set up an ASP.Net web application on IIS 7. There is a main application and in one of its sub directories an additional application, which is a message board. I attempted to set up this directory as another application in IIS by performing the following steps:

  1. Created a new Application Pool for this application under 'Appication Pools'.
  2. Right-clicked on the root directory of the 'sub application' and selected 'Convert to application'.
  3. Point the physical path to the appropriate path on my file system, gave the application an alias and hit 'OK'

However when I went to access this application through my webpage I received an error stating that the webpage has a 'redirect loop' and it won't load.

I believe what might be causing the problem is that both the primary application and the new sub application share an AspMembershipProvider in order to achieve Single Sign-On. Perhaps this is causing some sort of redirect issue? I really am having a difficult time figuring out how to troubleshoot this.

Is there anything in my IIS configuration that I can investigate that might be causing this issue?
