ASP Error Pages for Solution Sites
The 500error.asp page is the most common error page that users will view when a critical error is encountered on your site. To aid in the usability of your site, it is recommended that you customize this page. The current message displayed on the 500error.asp page is, "We apologize for the inconvenience. Please try again later. If the problem persists, please contact our webmaster." You may want to add an e-mail link to your webmaster so that your users can contact you when they encounter difficulties. For more information about the 500error.asp page, see 500error.asp.
To specify which error page will be displayed when errors are encountered, see the Custom Errors tab in the IIS Properties dialog box for your site.
To view the Custom Errors tab
- Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Internet Services Manager.
- In the Internet Information Services screen, expand the nodes to the following path: Internet Information Services/<Server Name>/Default Web Site/<Site Name>.
- Right-click <Site Name> and select Properties.
- Click the Custom Errors tab.
The Custom Errors tab lists all the HTTP errors and the file that is displayed when the error is encountered. The file names can be changed by clicking the Edit Properties button.
