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>

What this error is saying, is that you cannot view this error remotely, you
have to either change a value in the web.config to see the error, or view
this page from the server its running on. (meawning running IE on that pc)

as the page tells you, place this in the config file

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Hi,

i changed it to off mode,
still getting error

Have you tried viewing it from the server its running?

Remotely login, open IE and try view that page.
Or physically go to that server, and view it from there

Well, essentially, that is what the <customErrors mode="Off"/> should be
simulating.

So, either you've made a mistake in you.config file, or there is some bug in
your server.
There error could very well be, that your config file is not well formed.

Try setting up a local copy on your machine, and you should see the error.
