No Longer Shown in Web Browser by Default Classic ASP Script Error Messages No Longer Shown in Web Browser iis disable detailed error messages by Default By Robert McMurrayFebruary 19, 2009In earlier versions of IIS, error messages from classic ASP scripts were sent to a Web browser, by default. Because these error messages might reveal sensitive http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5910147/setting-detailed-customer-error-messages-issues-iis7-asp-classic information to malicious users, IIS 7 and above disables this feature by default. When your classic ASP scripts encounter an error in IIS, you receive the following error message by default: An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator. If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error. You can https://www.iis.net/learn/application-frameworks/running-classic-asp-applications-on-iis-7-and-iis-8/classic-asp-script-error-messages-no-longer-shown-in-web-browser-by-default customize the ASP script error message, and also determine whether to return the script errors to a Web browser. Note: As a best practice for security, you should only enable sending ASP script error messages to a Web browser on a development or test computer; returning script error messages to a Web browser can unintentionally expose more information than you intended to show. Working with User Access Control You need to make sure that you follow the steps in this document by using an account that has full administrative permissions. This is best accomplished by using one of two methods: Log in to your computer by using the local administrator account. If you are logged in using an account with administrative permissions but that is not the local administrator account, open all applications and all command prompt sessions by using the "Run as Administrator" option. These above conditions are required because the User Account Control (UAC) security component in Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 will prevent administrative access to the IIS configuration settings. For more information about UAC, see the following documentation: User Account Control Customizing Classic ASP Error Message

This http://community.discountasp.net/threads/how-to-disable-or-turn-off-iis-7-detailed-errors.5746/ article helps you understand how and why IIS generates these errors and how they can be configured. Many might think that generating error messages does not seem to justify a full article. But there is more to error messages errors than meets the eye. Error messages are a sensitive topic, because every error reveals more about your web-site than you might want revealed. The more information someone can gather about your site, the likelier it is that you will be hacked. A search for "google hacking" or "cross-site scripting" reveals a wealth of information on this topic. However, error messages are also a valuable tool to troubleshoot problems. Developers and Web-Site Administrators require as much show friendly http detail as possible when an error occurs. Ideally the error message gives recommendations on how to fix the problem. Here is how IIS addresses these fundamentally opposed goals. Errors, What Errors? This article talks about HTTP errors as specified in the HTTP RFC (RFC 2616 - section 6.1.1).

Client Errors Status codes between 400 and 500 specify an error that the client made, e.g. bad syntax or a request to a resource that doesn't exist. You can try this by requesting a bogus URL from the web-site of your choice, for example: http://
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 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 much want all 4** errors going to 404 page not found.
