I tried command prompt and java script....can any one help me? asp.net error-handling web-config share|improve this question edited Dec 10 '08 at 15:50 tvanfosson 351k65570700 asked Dec 10 '08 at 15:33 david Could you explain this further please? What do you mean that you want to look at the web.config file? Do you mean via a web browser? If so, you should know that IIS prevents you from seeing config files by default - it's a forbidden type. –Pete OHanlon Dec 10 '08 at 15:36 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 8 down vote Keep in mind that IIS errors and asp.net errors are two separate things, For remote requests, by default IIS has custom errors enabled, what that means is if you are returning a none 200 response from your application, IIS will discard the body you were sending back and replace it with its own custom page. which can be pretty troubling if you are hosting a REST service that needs to return error details to the client as json or XML. to turn off ASP.net custom errors use customErrors Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema) to turn off IIS custom errors use IIS HTTP Errors httpErrors share|improve this answer edited Aug 17 at 15:33 Lee Taylor 4,54072138 answered Jun 18 '12 at 18:22 kay.one 4,51343964 Wow this is the first time I heard about

2008. Thread Status: Not open for further replies. gannina Hi, when I would like to turn off IIS 7 error reporting when my site is live, and turn it on when performing updates or maintenance. I like the errors http://community.discountasp.net/threads/how-to-disable-or-turn-off-iis-7-detailed-errors.5746/ that IIS 7 gives, but I don't want the world to see the extremely detailed and colourful error messages. There must be a way to turn these off in the web.config, does anyone know how? This is what I am trying so far. Note: On my IIS 5.1 test server I really only need a 404 error page, because it isn't insane like IIS 7.0 which spits out a different error message for every little nuance. I pretty customerrors mode much want all 4** errors going to 404 page not found. gannina, Mar 16, 2008 #1 gannina I keep getting the following error: Couldnotconnecttothespecifiedcomputer Details:Theremoteserverreturnedanerror401)unauthorizedClick to expand... gannina, Mar 17, 2008 #2 raymondp DiscountASP.NET Staff This should work. But keep in mind that this will only cover .net web applications. If you want other sites, such as (.htm, .html, .asp, or .php) to return a custom error page, you will need customerrors mode= on to set the custom error page in the IIS 7 manager. It should be in the IIS portion of the IIS 7 Manager, under Error Pages. You will need to go to 'Edit Features' under Error Pages and choose Custom Errors. rcp DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET raymondp, Mar 17, 2008 #3 gannina I'm kind of lost, where is the IIS 7 manager? Is it part of the discountasp's control panel, or is something I need to download separately? I have thoroughly searched the IIS manager in the control panel and the only section relating to errors is 'custom errors' and that is to set 404 and 500 error pages. Post Edited (john123) : 3/17/2008 6:13:17 AM GMT gannina, Mar 17, 2008 #4 gannina Ok, I found a tool called IIS 7 manager from Microsoft (works with XP), so I downloaded it, but now I don't know how to connect to the server. Where would I find server address, username, and password? I have tried using my domain name, the alternate domain name, with every combination or user name / password that my discountasp account uses, and I keep getting a 401 unauthorized. Here's a link to the download for IIS 7.0 manager http://blogs.iis.net/carlosag/archi...anager-for-windows-xp-2003-and-vista-sp1.aspx gannina, Mar 17, 2008 #5 gannina Finally got it working, thanks tech support!
