ASP.NET 2.0 on Windows 2000

J

Jay

I have a simple asp.net 2.0 website that runs fine on Windows XP and Windows
2003 / IIS 6.0, but I cannot get it to run on Windows 2000 / IIS 5.0. I get
the general error shown below. My web.config file contains the following in
between the system.web tags which does not ever trigger showing the full
error page.

<customErrors mode="Off"/>

All systems run asp.net 1.x and 2.0 together. I think I remember reading
somewhere where Application Pools must be dedicated to either 1.x or 2.0 but
not a mixture. That does not hold when using IIS 5.0.

I have made sure that 2.xx is selected on the ASP.NET tab in IIS 5.0.

Any Suggestions? I really need to solve this problem.

Thanks

Jay



Server Error in '/MCLNew' 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>

Update

I was able to install my asp.net 2.0 website on another windows 2000 /
IIS5.0 machine successfully. In addition, I forced an error (divide by
zero) and was able to see the full error page given that I used
<customErrors mode="Off"/>. I was not able to get the error page to work
properly on the other Windows 2000 server.

Stll need help as to why I cannot get my website to work on one Windows 2000
server.
