Configuration :: IIS 7.5 Will Not Let Me Turn Off CustomErrors?
Dec 21, 2010
We developed an application in ASP.NET 3.5 on Windows Server 2003. (IIS 6.0)They are trying to deploy it on Windows Server 2008 IIS 7.5.But we are getting the old yellow screen message: Runtime ErrorDescription:
[Code]....
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.
[Code]....
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.Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on the local server machine, 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 "RemoteOnly". To enable the details to be viewable on remote machines, please set "mode" to "Off".We have turned off custom errors everywhere we can find in ASP.Net Error Pages and set it to Detailed Errors at all folder levels for IIS Error Pages.Still the yellow screen with custom errors and no detailed errors.If we switch the application pool to run in 32 bit = true, we get a detailed error. But we don't get very far with that because of Oracle issues and wouldn't really want to force it to run in 32 bit when it should really run in 64 bit anyway.So how do we get detailed messages from IIS while running in 64 bit?
When an error occurs (I type in a non-existing page in address), I get the default IE "page not found" page.This happens both on localhost in development, and of course in live environment.I think this started happening since a recent Microsoft Update, which included most recent updates to .net.
By defauly in my web.config I have set the , in runtime I just want to change the Mode = "Off" in memory. I do not want to save the changes to web.config.
Basically we need to see the description of the runtime error, when required.
I am having an issue where if I change my url to .asp from .aspx i get a 404 error but it is not handled by my custom errors. If I change the url to def23947823h.aspx it is caught and redirects to correct page.
I have IIS 7.5 running on windows 7 64 bit machine.
My problem is that in my web application after any page request if the page remains idle for more than 2 mins, it stops responding. For e.g. lets take the following scenario:
1. Initial page request
2. the page stays idle for 2 mins
3. Click a button to save data
4. It takes very long for the aspnet worker process to reach page_load, and firefox shows "connection was reset" message.
I put breakpoint on page_load. It strikes the breakpoint after a long time and also it does not go to the event handler of the button that was clicked.
The web application works perfectly if the page is not kept idle.
I've just uploaded an asp.net web project to a Fasthosts shared server (yes, I know!). The site works fine on a different server, and builds successfully. However, when I upload it (or even just the files in the App_Code folder) to the fasthosts server, I just get a flat error 500 message.
I've ensured that the web.config file includes: <customErrors mode="Off"/> but still nothing - just Error 500.
The Fasthosts server is running asp.net 3.5, which is what the web project is built to.
I successfully implemented role based authorization in ASP.NET. When a person does not have the needed role he gets to see an error page for 401.2 not authorized.
What I would like to accomplish now is to have a custom 401 page in my application and have it redirected there via settings in the web.config. I tried this:
If I have a customErrors section in my Web.config that says to redirect to Error.html, then putting code in the Application_Error method in the Global.asax to redirect to Error.html is redundant is it not? Technically, I could bypass the Web.config by redirecting to a different page in the Application_Error method if I wanted to, but since I don't want to go to a separate page I don't think I need the code.
We usually catch unhandled exceptions in Global.asax, and then we redirect to a nice friendly error page. This is fine for the Live environment, but in our development environment we would like to check if CustomErrors are Off, and if so, just throw the ugly error.
Is there an easy way to check if CustomErrors are Off through code?
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".i got this error during login time on the server how it can be solved
The basic idea is we have a test enviroment which mimics Production so customErrors="RemoteOnly". We just built a test harness that runs against the Test enviroment and detects breaks. We would like it to be able to pull back the detailed error. But we don't want to turn customErrors="On" because then it doesn't mimic Production.
I've looked around and thought a lot, and everything I've come up with isn't possible. Am I wrong about any of these points?
We can't turn customErrors on at runtime because when you call configuration.Save() - it writes the web.config to disk and now it's Off for every request.We can't symlink the files into a new top level directory with it's own web.config because we're on windows and subversion on windows doesn't do symlinks. We can't use URL-Mapping to make an empty folder dir2 with its own web.config and make the files in dir1 appear to be in dir2 - the web.config doesn't apply. We can't copy all the aspx files into dir2 with it's own web.config because none of the links would be consistent and it's a horrible hacky solution. We can't change customErrors in web.config based on hostname (e.g. add another dns entry to the test server) because it's not possible/supported. We can't do any virtual directory shenanigans to make it work.
If I'm not, is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Turn on customErrors site-wide under certain circumstances (dns name or even a querystring value)?
This is a yellow page which is not user friendly and we didn't expect . I'm wondering setting customeError in webconfig doesn't support this type of address or not ? How can i prevent users seeing this yellow page . Edit : solution you mentioned are about configuring IIS ,But as i mentioned earlier , my site has been published on shared hosting provider . I don't have those access at IIS , What should i do at this situation ?
I am trying to create a pop-up box that looks like a caption of a cartoon which is basicaly a square or rectangle with rounded corners all except for the bottom left.I don't want to use a graphic if possible, and am trying to use CSS to do it but can't quite get it. can use the border-radius for three of the corners that round off, but the left bottom corner that would be protruding out I can't get.
I have a dropdownlist, filled with countries (from xml file).When you choose a country, you can use the autocomplete for a textbox.This autocomplete has postal codes from the choosen country.Now I want to set the autocomplete off right after the dropdownlist.change eventfor preventing that the autocomplete (filled with postal codes) for 1 country also work for another country. But how do you turn it off?Code:
//when changing country, other postcodes will load $('[id$=landenDropDown]').change(function () { //autocompletes removal
I am parsing a tweet and need to search for any words that begin with '@'. I want to turn the rest of the word after the '@' into a hyperlink. I have a partial solution, but my problem is that the link which gets generated includes the '@' in the link text and the hyperlink, but I only want the text after the '@'.
Example:
"Username @SomeName blah blah blah blah"
I want to create the hyperlink text: http://twitter/SomeName
I have the following partial solution:
ASP Code:
body = Regex.Replace(body, "(@[^ ]*[a-zA-Z0-9])", "<a href="http://www.twitter.com/$1" target="_blank">$1</a>");
Working with Visual Studio (I'm using 2008) I have started to notice that when you save a file in the /App_Code folder, the program will hang for a bit before returning control. After a bit of research, I have learned that there's an auto-compile feature at work, which I assume is what is slowing down my system.
So the question is this: Is it possible to turn off the automatic compiling of files in the /App_Code folder? Or, even better, is there a way to reduce the time that it takes, or make it work a little more smoothly in the background?
I'm currently using ASP.net. I wonder what would I need to do to let the browser wait for 3 seconds so my users can read the text "Customer Successfully Added" before turning to another page? I have attached my code as follows.
Protected Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click Dim db As New DatabaseClass db.addProfile(txtLN.Text, txtFN.Text, txtUsername.Text, txtPassword.Text, txtAddress.Text, txtZip.Text, txtPhone.Text, txtEmail.Text) lblMessage.Text = "Customer Successfully Added" End Sub
In addition, I'm not sure how to utilize MSDN. For me, its information overload, I'm wondering how to go about finding the solution on MSDN so i would be able to solve my problems in the future.
Background - I've started with a VS2010 dynamic data project, but now I want to add some other custom pages based on MVC to it. Question - What is the minimum I would need to do to get this non-MVC project to look/act like an MVC project?
