is there a way to make custom error pages specific to a particular page?I know you can make customer error pages for iis to use.but if there is an error on a particuar page, can i make a custom error page to be redirected to?
for example,if a user is clicking away and runs into an error,it would display error1.htm.if they were on a different page and an error occured,they would get an error2.hm.
I'm looking to do custom homepages based on user login, something like googles homepage, But not as drastic. I'm not sure how i should go about this. any suggestions on the thought process would be nice .
When you have a custom HTTP 500 error handler, how do you go about making sure all your previously opened recordsets/objects/connections/etc.are closed properly?
It would seem to me that once you hit a 500 error, you have no opportunity to close any of the previously opened objects, eventually causing memory leaks.
When a user tries to visit a non-existant page in our web site they receive a custom 404 error message. I want to capture the URL the user tried to visit. Does anyone know where I can find this string?
I am still in the debugging of my website, but I'm nearing the end. As a last phase implementation, I want to be able to catch all asp errors and if there is one, send the user to a custom "sorry bout that" page, rather than having the errors displayed on that; if there aren't any errors, let the page load. I setup the 404 error, but that doesn't seem to accomplish what I want.
On windows xp we can modify 500-100.asp file for custom asp error messages. How can we do this on a windows NT 4.0 and IIS.or what is the similar file on NT and IIS?
Just a quick question about making a custom error handler. Can I use. Code:
<%On Error Response.Redirect("error.asp")%>
instead of defining a custom error page in IIS? My site is hosted by an ISP so doing the latter would leave me completely without error messages; my way I could comment out the On Error code when debugging.
why I can't use custom error messages with the asp extension in IIS5.1? I have set up a custom page to handle errors called errorHandler.asp and all HTML is rendered but not the asp.
If i put Hello World in the html body section it renders but if I put the same in a response.write of the asp it won't render.
I have created a custom error page using asp. When I upload it to my site to test that it works, it appears to run fine. I have set it up so that an email would be sent to me if there is a page that can not be found. I first tested the page to make sure an email would be sent to me and it works.
Then I made sure that my server variables where be queried by printing them to the screen. But when I go in to IIS to point the 404 error to my new page and test it, the page is processed like straight html and not as an asp page.
i have looked around on google and on here but cant find a decent example of making a custom 500 error page. I want an example that i can look at and unserstand then amend for my own needs (ie emailing the errors etc).
I set up a custom error 404 page as URL and it works sometimes but not always. The problem is when the URL contains special characters, like [ or : , it produces the error message:
The system cannot find the file specified. and nothing else. The response code is 404, and it does not contain any other info in the response header. The server is IIS5.
The odd thing about this problem is that it happens on only one server that I am aware of. Most of my clients do not have this problem, so I suspect that this is a server related issue instead of coding issue. What can possibly cause this problem?
I have a site that currently has custom error messages enabled for all error messages, i.e. any error goes directly to error.asp etc. What I want to do however is have this error.asp email me with a fairly detailed error message outlining the problem that caused the error.
What is the best way of doing this? My server allows me to setup custom messages for any type of error but obviously to do this would be time consuming. Is there a way I can basically email myself an almost exact copy of the error message that I would get if I was viewing the page and the error happened to me?
For example, a 501.100 error can cover any number of error and whereas a message telling me that a person got a 501.100 at 12.43 on 31/5/2004 is ok it isn't very helpful. I want it to say:
501.100 at 12.43 on 31/5/2004 Error Type: Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A03F9) Expected 'Then' /kshs/cms/cmsDefault.asp, line 54, column 39
I have a custom 404 error page. When I change my site properties in IIS (IIS 5.0, BTW) to point to a file, I still get the original 404 error page. But, then I copied my error page to my root, then pointed to it via URL and it works! BUT, I would prefer to use the file page instead of the URL.
We currently have custom error logging setup on all of our websites. We have IIS setup to redirect to our custom 500-100.asp page which logs the error to a database and then redirects to a friendly error message page.
Last week we were working on a pretty troublesome error on our intranet site and noticed huge discrepencies between the IIS Log and our error log database. On this particular day for this particular site, the IIS Log has literally thousands more errors logged than our database does.
I am very familiar with ASP error logging and completely understand how our current system is working. I've been given the task of figuring out why there are more errors in the IIS Logs than in our "dbSiteErrorLog" database, the destination db of our custom 500-100 page.
I have 404.asp file that catches non existing pages such as www.site.com/es for spanish version of site. Now I would like to move ahead and have es.site.com instead. I started digging into subdomains in IIS and found out that usually when creating subdomain in IIS it creates a separate sub-directory by the same name as the subdomain created. From some reason the custom error 404.asp file I already have is not called when a call to a non existing sub domain page is made.
Anyone knows why?
How do I configure 404.asp to also handle subdomain page requests?
I know that in Unix/Apache I can use .htaccess file to direct calls to es.site.com to www.site.com/es quite easily, can this be done somehow on IIS?
We have Windows 2003 Server as our SUS server. When we try to approve updates, etc., we receive the following error message. Has anyone experiences this before? If so, can you tell us what needs to be fixed?
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0126'
Include file not found

The include file '/shared/global.asp' was not found.
I'm running IIS 5.1 under Windows XP Pro, and recently installed PHP and Active Perl to experiment with. Since I installed them, I get 500 Internal Server Error when I try to access .asp pages.
I can't even consult the documentation for IIS 5.1 because they are in .asp format. how to get .asp pages working again?
I have been trying to submit a html form to an asp page. This results in 404 error. When i call a separate asp page with just a response.write or with a small text file i/o operation, it works fine.
But when i use a simple htm form with a text box and submit button gives a 404 error. All the pages exists. I use WinXP Pro/IIS 5.1.
Am i missing anything in settings? I tried restarting, reinstalling IIS and updating the patches to the latest but not of much help.
I just upgraded an NT IIS server to 2003 and IIS 6.0 now my Active Server Pages .asp pages do not load or open in the browser I get 500 Error Server Error. Yet and htm page will open. What do I need to change? or configure?
When I had just setup my web site with IIS 5.0 the error log contained the 3 things I needed for my site stats page.
The page that had that not been found (i.e. site.com/nofile.html), the error number (404) and the referrer (where the person came from to get to the bad page); Now when I try to use my custom 404 page it only logs the error number. How can I setup my page to log the referrer and bad file page?
i am gettin this error...which i never got. Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0201' Invalid Default Script Language The default script language specified for this application is invalid.
When I use IIS 6.0 to display static content everything works according to plans. Now I have created an asp page even though there is no dynamic content at the moment. The web page's name just ends in "asp" and has the Code:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
at the first line of the code.
When I try to link to this asp-page I get an error code saying "Http 500 Internal Server Error". I then disabled the "friendly http errors" and got this information.
"Asp error Asp 0203" "Invalid code page" "The specified code page attribute is invalid"
I should also add that I have enabled/allowed asp as extension in IIS manager.
Anyone who knows what I can try to get IIS working with dynamic content too?
I have an ASP form that uploads files to our server.When I upload small files, it works great.But larger files like (2.5mb), I get:
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0113' Script timed out
I have looked up the error, and added more time to the script (up to 10 minutes). Didn't help. We are using Microsoft Server 2000, IIS 5.0, and Microsoft ASP Upload.
My guess is that there is a file size limitation somewhere, but don't where.
The problem occured when I used FP2002 to create a page to search a database. The purpose was to see how it worked and the code behind it so I could start learning how to work it myself.
But before I got that far, I get an error message:
HTTP 500.100 - Internal Server Error - ASP error
Error Type:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0138 (0x80004005) A script block cannot be placed inside another script block.
Browser Type:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98) (Mozilla/5.0 came back with the same message)
But unless I'm mistaken (and I probably am), the only scriptting on the page is this: Code:
I notice that when you have the defualt setup of 404 error pages the IIS 5.0 log tracks the page the user was trying to get to and the page they where at when they tryed to get to the now missing page. I recently wrote my own 404 error page to make it match my site but when I set IIS to use my custom page it no longer traks the page that the user was trying to get.
I was told I needed to add some code to my page to fix this, but I don't know what code to add. Can someone tell me? (I am useing ASP on the custom 404 error page) I am returning a 404 error response, everything works fine it is just that IIS does not log what page the user was trying to get to.
I created my own custom 404 handler and it works, so when I put in
http://www.domain.com/badxxx.html it produces the correct 404 error and you see http://www.domain.com/badxxx.html in the url still which is fine.
But when I put in http://www.domain.com/asdf
it redirects to http://www.domain.com/index.html
it gives a 302 (moved temporarily) as well as the 404 error. Why does it do this for not .html files? I dont redirect it at all, and am using thestring = Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING") to get the url
but thestring sometimes does not display the asdf depending what I do after this command, very odd.
does anybody have anyideas as to how to preserve this http://www.domain.com/asdf in the url and avoid the 302?
i have a table that users are inserting custom tages ,it looks like :
user_id type value 1 99 television 2 98 beach 3 99 coldplay
etc. now i have to make a search which will show all the users that typed the same value from the same type .i dont want the query to be a textual query (slow ...)what is the right way to do it ?how can i make a query that JOINs to tables from 2 different databases?
I'm developing an application that uses a custom 404 page to deliver all of my site's content. However, doing things this way renders IIS's regular log files pretty much useless.
Are there any established "best practices" for creating your own logging system? I know that others use this technique and I'm hoping someone has some ideas they can pass along. For example, do you log every single page request or do you just log totals per day, week, or month? How do you deal with the increasing volumes of data? Do you collect referrer data, etc.?
