Answer 1

There is a lot of stuff in the NopCommerce web.config file that is needed for it to function properly. It sounds like you just replaced the NopCommerce root web.config with the DNN web.config, which is a major no-no. (I could be wrong about what you did, but that's what it sounds like?)

Judging from what you're looking for, it sounds like you might be more interested in a Virtual Folder in IIS. It will allow to separate your web applications and have separate web.config files.

Here's an MSDN article on creating Virtual Directories in IIS 7

Here's one for IIS 6.
