500 Internal Server Error Iis 6.0
lists the most common 500 substatus codes returned by IIS. The descriptions for most substatus codes are self-explanatory. When additional information about a substatus code is required, it is provided in one of the following sections.Table 11.10 HTTP 500 Substatus Codes500 Substatus CodeCondition11Application is shutting down on the Web server.12Application is busy restarting on the Web server.13Web server is too busy.14Invalid application configuration on the server.15Direct requests for Global.asa are not allowed.16UNC authorization credentials are incorrect.17URL authorization store cannot be found.18URL authorization store cannot be opened.100Internal ASP error.500.11 and 500.12-Application State IssuesUsers rarely encounter 500.11 and 500.12 errors in their browser. These errors indicate that the ASP application to which the requested ASP page belongs is in the process of shutting down, restarting, or both. Restarts and shutdowns can be triggered directly from code when the built-in APIs available to ASP developers are used. Occasionally, these errors occur when the Global.asa file for the application (if one exists) is updated or altered in such a way that a file change notification is issued. Because IIS monitors for file change notifications on ASP content, IIS receives this notification, and because the file is the Global.asa file, IIS restarts the application.If users often encounter these errors in their browser and you are certain that the code in the Global.asa file is not being updated, virus scanning and backup software, which sometimes sweep the ASP content and trigger a notification, might be causing these errors.

The most common suggestions are: Internet Explorer -> Tools Menu -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Show Friendly Error Messages (make sure this is NOT ticked) IIS -> Home Directory tab -> Configuration... -> Debugging tab -> Send Detailed ASP Error message to the client (make sure this is selected) Neither of these work http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1845449/how-do-i-debug-a-500-internal-server-error-on-iis-6-0-managed-by-plesk-running and I have a feeling it has to do with Plesks management of IIS.

Proceed to your domain in Plesk control panel and turn off "Custom Error Documents" under "Physical hosting setup". This will send error message directly to the browser. You can also find error messages in log file directory yourdomain.com\statistics\logs\W3SVCXXXX share|improve this answer answered Dec 14 '09 at 3:13 Sergey Kornilov 1,49421219 add a comment| up vote 3 down vote The class_terminate event can be used to create a global error handler without touching the iis config. When ASP encounters an error it server.execute's the configured 500 handler and then return to the org

I want to detect if any user gets the following error and restart server if it happens. I just can't find the good way to detect if server returns this error. I tried to detect it by downloading some light page from server in period of time and checking for error, but i don't think this is optimal variant. Please share some ideas around my task.

You are not going to solve this problem with a restart, you are going to have to solve your problem by figuring out what is causing the 500 and correcting it. Automatically restarting the server on a 500 is not a resolution to the problem. At best it's a very weak workaround. If you have a page that is generating a 500 and it's bad enough to require a server restart then you are in a bad way and you should be focusing on determining the cause of the error. Look in the IIS logs for error information. You may need to enable further log fields to get the information required. Turn on detailed error reporting in your application if it's not already enabled. That said, if you want to detect when a 500 happens you will need to do something like the following: Monitor the IIS log Monitor the Windows Application event log. Write a custom script (client-side) and add it to the custom error page for the 500 errors so that it will notify you A good, compact description of the IIS logs can be found in this post. A related

Using VS 2010, I created an ASP.NET Web Application. It has a very simple web form called Hellp.aspx as its start page, and the only thing the page has is the word "Hello World". From Visual Studio, on Hello.aspx I can right click - View in Browser, and the page comes up fine on the browser with the word "Hello World" I build the solution, and right click on it, and publish. For "Publish method", I selected "File System", and for "Target Location" I select an empty folder called HelloApp, and I click Publish. I then copied the folder HelloApp to c:\inetpub\wwwroot. In IIS Manager, I right click on HelloApp, and select "Convert to Application". The alias is HelloApp, application pool = DefaultAppPool, physical path: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\HelloApp. I click OK. In IIS Manager for HelloApp, I click "Browse *.80 (http)". I then get the error HTTP 500 Internal Server Error. The website cannot display the page. Most likely causes: •The website is under maintenance. •The website has a programming error. More information This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying. I got the same error when in the browser I type "http://localhost/helloapp/Hello.aspx" If I turn off "Show friendly HTTP error messsages", I don't get the HTTP 500 error, but the page just comes up blank, without the word "Hello world". How can I fix this error ? Thank you.
