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 "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 Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>


Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


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

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

AM GETTING THE FOLLOWING ERROR HOW CAN I GET RID OF THIS,THE APPLICATION WORKS FINE IN MY LOCAL WEB SERVER
Posted

1 solution

What you are seeing here is a standard aspnet generic error screen.
This screen tells you what changes you need to make to the web.config file to enable you to view the detail of underlying exception.

If you don't want to modify the web.config, and if you have console access to the server, you could try the following:
- logon to the server and open a browser and try viewing the website - this may give a different error screen, with the exception detail.
- open the event viewer and have a look at the windows application log.

Hope it helps.
