It means you application crashes on the server. Put the
customerrors-tag as listed in the web.config-file to see the
error-output.

Hi,

Usually when a web project works on a local machine but not on your
web host you are missing a dll referenced. I would check and make sure all
the dll files in your projects bin folder are on the bin folder on your web
host. Also adding that line to your web.config on your web host will give
you a lot more information about the error.

I copied all bin directory with dll's.. There is no problem about missing
files.. It is my web server. I have full access to change whatever i want ..
By the way what you mean

<< Put the
customerrors-tag as listed in the web.config-file to see the
error-output.

my web.config file
<customErrors mode="Off" />



any solution ?

Isn't "Server Error in '/' Application" idicative of the virtual directory
not being marked as an application in IIS?

PS: I've also seen the <customErrors> message even when it is set to Off,
whenever there is a syntax error in the web.config.

do exactly what the error tells you. open the web.config
and change
<customErrors
mode="RemoteOnly"
/>

to <customErrors
mode="Off"
/>


thou shalt google before asking...

Hi,

Even i faced the same problem.
it is because i developed web application in 2003 but the server was in 2002.
is there any alternative without upgrading the server, to run the application from 2002 server (it is fine only if the site works without error,project need not be opened)
also the server holds MS Framework 1.0 & 1.1

can anyone help me to resolve the problem?
