ASP.NET custom error problem 1

[Microbe]

Hello,

An ASP.NET server where I have pages hosted is having problems with custom error redirections.

It redirects to the correct error 404 page but then instead of displaying the page, it shows the ASP source code. (Yes, it does have a .asp extension)

We have tried everything we can think of to solve the problem. At the moment it has been pointed to a static .HTM page instead.

Does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening? Steve Davis

IIS in .NET server by default is setup so that it will only serve static pages (no active content). You will need to enable the ASP extension in the IIS manager on the server (I'm assuming your redirect is to a separate .NET Server).

That's the only suggestion I really have. Hope it works.

further to this.. if its actually asp.net youve written, then the correct extension is .aspx

I think the solution is covered here:

"IIS custom error script returns script source code"

Does that help?

I don't have access to the server, but it certainly looks like the solution. EXCELLENT...we have been tearing our hair out over this for months
