I have a problem with an small application that I am trying to publish to my production webserver.

It's driving me bonkers as i have tried pretty much everything that I can think of..



The application works on my development machine (XP), the test system (2003), but not the live production server(2003);

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".


the customErrors tag mode is "Off"
the application has a valid application pool ( recreated many times, changed to different
IUSR account has access to the application via ISS (anonymous)
IUSR account has access via the windows security


Is there anything else I can try???
 
Can you actually get onto the server and run the application via the server's browser?

right I fixed it!!

turns out that globally was running .NET version 1.1 and not 2.0.

So switched the application to version 2.0 and it works.

frustating that the error message was saying it was the custom error when in fact it was .net version difference...
