I get an error when I try to deploy the feature which just creates a new site collection in sharepoint even when build is successful.

Error message:

Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': Feature definition with Id eeebb27c-ec18-4f87-8be6-e29c61fb53d5 failed validation, file 'SPFeature_Feature\Feature.xml': Feature 'eeebb27c-ec18-4f87-8be6-e29c61fb53d5' is WebApplication-scoped, and cannot be added to the Site.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Edited. Would suggest you to read the FAQ about how to ask good questions. People will most probably request more info and/or code to help you out. - user1064248

I would suggest a fix to you. Click on Features folder of the solution in Visual Studio. Check the scope of the FeatureX.feature file and change it to Site level.

Hope this helps :)
