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"
check if every "<" have its "/>",
in my case that was the problem. 1/11/2006 9:12 PM | Juvenal Q.

# re: You may receive the Error Message "Server Error in '/application name' Application" while browsing an asp.net application

What helped me was to copy the web.config file and then rename it as web.xml.
I had been earlier setting the mode attribute to off but this was not working, but as soon as I loaded this web.xml file in my browser, I saw that the default as created by VS 2005 was to comment this out. I had been looking at the line where the mode attribute was and not at the lines below. Loading web.config as an XML file immediately showed the commenting. 2/8/2006 3:29 AM | ASP Newbie

# re: You may receive the Error Message "Server Error in '/application name' Application" while browsing an asp.net application

This is usually caused by the fact that either your web site hasnt been set as an IIs application in the IIs properties box, or a subfolder that must be an application, hasnt been designated as such. The other is the basic read permissions for the ASP.NET or Worker process account hasnt been set on the phyiscal folders in your site, starting at your web root folder on the server. Remember, in ASP.NET, your root of your web site must have basic read access for the ASP user identity, and be and set as application in IIs. This can sometimes get screwed up and chnages are made to various folders in your site.

Lastly you may be trying to run ASP.NET 2.0 code on a server setup for 1.0. Thats also common. These are all IIs issues your host must fix, if you are paying for third party hosting and cannot access IIs to change it.

Try removing then adding back your web site application on the web root, and that should fix most issues. 1/28/2008 7:09 PM | ImageIsland

# re: You may receive the Error Message "Server Error in '/application name' Application" while browsing an asp.net application

I keep getting this error whenever I try to login to a customer account on an internet website. The website owner has not had anyone else complain of this problem and I had a friend try accessing their site to see what happens with their browser.

The occurance only happens when I'm trying to use their login or checkout (of merchandise). Once I hit this page, I can use my back button and return to the page I was last viewing, but if I try to navigate to any other page in the website, I will then only get the same error message for each page I try to view.

If I clear my history, cookies, temp internet pages on my computer, I can then view any of the pages, until once again, I try to login to my customer account or try to check out with an item I've placed in the shopping card.

What is causing this to occur and is it something I can change in settings on my computer, or is it something the website owner needs to change in their website configuration?

Thanks for any help you can offer. 1/31/2008 10:04 AM | Pat Craig

I have the same error, it is possible that there is something wrong with the settings on the host machine, if that is the problem there is nothing you can do unless your host machine is at your place. A solution then is to send a mail to your provider with the comment that something is wrong on the host 5/15/2008 10:21 PM | Els
