give me this error.
--------------------
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>
---------------------------------------

Is the server yours?

or is this a ISP's server?

You need to enable ASP.NET on the server

Change the web.config so the customErrors element looks like the one you
were shown in the error. That will make the error visible to you.

error about the connection string which is not recognized, I delete
the line becouse my application is simple helo world app. and ren it
again and give error about
----------------------------
it is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='machine
ToApplication' beyond application level. this error can be caused by a
virtual directory not being configerd as an application in IIS.

line 57 : <authentication mode="windows" /> s

I copy the pages in wwwroot folder which all old files on it.
any idea please. thanks

What this means is the directory you are publishing to is not marked as an
application. If you're publishing to a directory such as
www.mysite.com/myapp then the myapp is not marked as an application for the
web server. You are receiving this message because the authentication
element can only be used in the web.config that's at the root directory of
an application. In this case, it would be at www.mysite.com. Putting it into
the myapp directory is thus placing it into a sub-directory of the app. That
also means that your bin directory with your dll files would also be inthe
wrong directory. What you'll need to do is to find a way to mark the
directory you are publishing to as it's own application. your we host may
have this feature available as part of your web site's control panel.

LaiLakY,

What that error means is that you must configure the physical directory
where your "hello world" file is located as a virtual directory in IIS.

Open IIS Manager by going to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services.

In the IIS Manager, select the "Default Web Site" folder and right-click it.
Select "New" from the context menu, and then click Virtual Directory .

The Virtual Directory Creation Wizard appears.

B. Click Next.
C. In the Alias box, type a name for the virtual directory. (choose a short name that is easy to type)
D. Click Next.

E. In the Path box, type or browse to the physical directory where your application resides,
( drive:\inetpub\wwwroot\yourDir\ is the default, but it could be anywhere on your hard drive,
and then click Next.

F. Choose the defaults on the next two pages.
G. Click Finish.

After you're done, you should be able to access the files in the physical directory
by typing : http://localhost/TheVirtualDirectoryNameYouUsedForAnAlias/some.aspx

Btw, if all you're doing is a simple "Hello world" app, I'd also delete the contents of your web.config.

You don't need it to experiment with a simple "Hello world" application.
After you get more familiar with what web.config files do, you can start adding things to it.

Good luck...and let us know if you have any problems after doing that.
