Hosting Server Problems...

Hi all, simple question - anyone have any idea why my sites run great
locally, but cause a server error when 'live'? I've contacted the hosting
co. but they say there's no prblem on their end. My site's looking greatt
and I want to deploy it...

They are running ASP.NET 2.0 and I'm using the Visual Web Dev. Express
package while I'm waiting for my new copy of VS2005. Please help if
possible!

TIA

It depends upon what the server error is. It could be tons of things that's
hard to tell. The first is, if it's in a sub-directory, is that
sub-directory on the server marked as an application? That won't happen if
you publish the site through FTP as FTP doesn't talk to the web server
directly so you have to do it manually.

If you can get more detailed info on the error and post it here that would
help us diagnose it.

Hope this helps,

That's the other problem I forgot to mention. I can't seem to retrive debug
info remotely. I just get a page saying "Server Error in '/'" and a buch of
info on how to get debug info LOL which doesn't seem to do anything useful.
Thainks for your quick reply, hope you can help...

Are you publishing to the root directory or a sub-directory? If it's a sub,
then it definitely sounds as if the sub-directory has not been marked as an
application. This would explain why the modifications recommended to get
further info don't work, since the web.config is in the sub-directory
whereas the true application is located at the root directory and expects
the web.config (and the bin folder) to be there.

Hope this helps,

Hi Mark,

I suspect the same thing, I am having my ISP look into it. I'll get back
to the group with the result.

Thanks again
