IIS error: The page you are looking for is currently unavailable.

I keep getting the error message below when I try to access my
default.aspx page on a MS 2003 server. I am using v2 of .net.

I've been rehashing the file security settings and the web settings
but can't find a solution. If I place a 'test.html' doc as the
default doc the browsers shows the doc, but not the default.aspx doc.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

You probably have some kind of error in you aspx page but because you have
custom errors turned on IIS is sending the browser "freindly" error messages.

If you make sure the customErrors lin in you web.config file reads something
like the one below you will get a more helpfull error message.

<customErrors mode="Off"/>

You may also want to turn de-bugging on by setting the debugging property of
the comp;liation tage to tru, like the line below

<compilation debug="true" strict="false" explicit="true"
urlLinePragmas= "true"/>

You waould want to put these settings back to how they were in a production
enviroment.

I have an application where users need to upload images and in my web.config file I have a setting like this: <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="512" /> Which restricts image larger than 500k from being uploaded. I'm also using the HtmlInputFile control to do the uploading. My problem is that when the user's file size exceeds 512k, the page immediately redirects to the "The page cannot be displayed" error page which is very confusing. ...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
