    Install problems

    Running on Win2k IIS

    I moved the bin and sample folder directories to my web folder.
    I also moved default.aspx.
    when I try and view default.aspx I get      
     
     

    Server Error in '/' Application.

    Runtime Error

    Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

    Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

    <!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
    
    <configuration>
        <system.web>
            <customErrors mode="Off"/>
        </system.web>
    </configuration>

    Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

    <!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
    
    <configuration>
        <system.web>
            <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
        </system.web>
    </configuration>

    ppecullan,

     

    We need to view the details of the error message.
     
    Please follow the below instructions to modify your web.config file:

    Re: Install problems

    WHAT web.config file?

     
    There was none in the DotNetgallery.zip file I downloaded from you.

    Re: Install problems

    The .NET Framework relies on .config files to define configuration options. The .config files are text-based XML files. Multiple .config files can, and typically do, exist on a single system.

     
    The following example shows a minimal Web.config file to enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <configuration>
      <system.web>
    <customErrors mode="Off"/> </system.web> </configuration>

    Re: Install problems

    Thanks.

     
    I created this file.  I still got the same message.  I tried opening the page from the server itself and it appeared to be a permissions problem.  I corrected that and it now appears to be working.
     
    Thank you.
