enable debugging from the client side

[simpsoro]

How do you enable debugging so that people see it from the
client side? I have gone in to properties, clicked on edit
www service, clicked on the home directory tab, clicked on
the configuration button, clicked on the app debugging tab
and then checked the box that says enable ASP client-side
script debugging. But on the client side they still get
the generic debug message:

-----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------

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>

Hi simpsoro,

This group is a "classic" ASP group. ASP.NET groups have "aspnet" in their
names, such as microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet. I suggest posting
there.
