This error can occur if you are trying to configure a virtual directory or web application on IIS with remote resources. I would like to clear about few things first. You are using IIS7.5 and trying to create a virtual directory or web application. The web application’s data is placed on a shared network place. That shared place is accessible to specific users. You have configure that specific user in IIS7.5 Application Pool. Same user is configured in the web application to access. The IIS shows no error or warning while exploring the resources. Still you are getting the above errors.
Full Trust policy update for the adding a virtual directory with remote data is configured in the IIS and web.config file has all the required information.
