Re: Supressing Public ASP Error Codes

Thanks Ken,

If I understand you correctly, it is the 500-100.asp page that determins
what error(s) are added to website pages should there be an error?

I do not understand what you mean by:

"Customise your website in IIS, so that the 500-100 error page points to your
page, and not the default one supplied with IIS."

What page do I point the 500-100.asp file to? The website has numerous
pages?

Thanks - Jody

Create your own custom 500-100.asp error page.

Customise your website in IIS, so that the 500-100 error page points to your
page, and not the default one supplied with IIS.

Then your message will be displayed. Additionally, if you make the custom
page an ASP page itself, you can use the ASPError object to get details
about the error and have them emailed to you (or logged to a database, event
log etc).

Take a look in c:\windows\help\iishelp\common\500-100.asp file for some
ideas on how the ASPError object works.

Cheers
Ken

I am the server Admin for a webmaster who designed a site in Straight ASP

webmaster is not very experienced in this area either.

So, I am soliciting some assistance with how to having non-informative
ASP
error messages appearing to the public?

For example we recently encountered a permissions issues that generated
the
following error message that was displayed at the bottom of the website
web
page. Although this issue is resolved we want to prevent this kind of
descriptive error code from being public.
For example:

Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0113'
Script timed out
/lectures.asp

All I have been able to find so far is the custom error pages in IIS.
There
are a bunch of htm pages with various messages but none of them have any
error like the one above. The messages I am referring to are added to
the
website page, they are not a separate error page as the ones in IIS
appear to
be. This leads me to believe that I am not looking in the correct place.

I would greatly appreciate anyone pointing me in the right direction.

Thanks - Jody
