Question

Site not showing ASP pages

I am working on a site that is connecting to our SQLServer 2000 for my ASP pages. If I view the site from the server ( http://localhost), the site & asp pages work fine. If I view the pages when developing, they work fine.

However, when I navigate to the site from my workstation ( http://servername), which is how I need it to be for my users, the ASP pages do not work....I receive the "HTTP 500 error - page cannot be displayed" page. I know it has to do with security, because I can view the basic HTML pages.

For the site, it is using IIS 6.0, authentication is set for "Integrated Windows authentication" and "Digest Authentication for domain servers".

Here is my connection string being used: "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=QMI;Data Source=TFA_DB"

Anyone have any ideas?

This problem was due to the server extensions on our sever. My administrator did something not sure what but all asp pages worked after an option was changed.

First off, go to Tools/Internet Options/Advanced in the browser and uncheck
"show friendly errors". Then rebrowse to the page and get the real error.
500 error could have many causes.

When I turn my friendly errors off, I now get: "An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator."

It's not that the asp pages don't work at all, but rather they do not work from a client machine.
