Hello,

I can not access my Production Web site anymore. Something has certainly changed , but I can't find what.
I don't know if it's an SQL access right, IIS config, .NET or Windows file access problem...

The following error concerns the Web.Config file that I haven't updated 'til ages:

----Microsoft error ------

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 &quot;web.config&quot; configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its &quot;mode&quot; attribute set to &quot;Off&quot;.

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode=&quot;Off&quot;/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

---- End of Microsoft error ------


CustomErrors is already set to Off.

Config.web:
<authentication mode=&quot;Windows&quot; />
<authorization>
<deny users=&quot;?&quot; />
</authorization>


I use the Windows Authentication and no anynymous access.
I am admin of my SQL database and Windows admin of this remote Production server.
If I load an HTML page, it's working but when I reach an apsx page (as my default page), I got this error.
As for Windows rights, Everyone account has read access to the site.
Even if I had an user having full control on the server Web's directory it's not working.
If I try to add a Trace on one of the aspx page, it's not working.

I don't know where I can investigate now. Anyone can help ?
Thanks.
 
Make the requested change in the web.config file and browse the page again. It will give you a more detailed message.

This atrribute is already set to Off:

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode=&quot;Off&quot;/>
</system.web>

</configuration>

I'll investigate with people working on Windows rights. I have deleted the Everyone account on my server folder and created it back. The problem can perhaps come from this action.
 
I have copied my site to a new virtual directory and I can access my pages. Except that on some of them it asks me a login/password/domain.
Looking like it's not recognizing the Windows authentication.
 
you said you deleted the every one account...

Does the .net account have access??

Life is change. To deny change is to deny life.
 
I'm using Windows authentication and not anonymous one.
The problem is solved, I don't know why, but I lost the access rights on the &quot;aspnet_client&quot; folder.
