Re: Integrated windows security HTTP500 error

IIS does not treat requests differently between "internal" and
"external". You can configure "internal" and "external" requests to
different websites on IIS which have different configure, which can
result in differences, but otherwise, no, IIS does not behave like
what you imagine.

But you've also mentioned "incorrect parameter" as the error that
comes back, which is NOT something that IIS would send, no matter the
authentication protocol. Thus, it seems like you are running third
party software on IIS which may behave differently depending on how a
user got to it, and you need to track that down.

At this point, you need to start with the support personel for your
web application and determine if it supports IIS6/Windows Server 2003
and if so, the proper configuration.

Hi Ken,
Strange thing is there is nothing in the Windows event log, nor in the
httperr.log files.
The application must be working because I can access it if I come in by
using a VPN connection.
The difference must be in how IIS treats a request coming from a browser
inside the network or from a browser outside the network.
And disabling the 'friendly errors' did not learn me much more. I now get
'incorrect parameter'

HTTP 500 = Internal Server Error (the "page can not be displayed" is just
something IE is showing you).

Please look in the Windows Event Log and/or httperr.log files to find out
why the server is unable to service the request.

Alternatively, it may be that your application itself is having a problem.
In which case, disabling "Show Friently HTTP errors" in IE might help you
see what the real error message is.

Cheers
Ken

I'm installing a webapplication on win2003 server. As soon as I enable the
'Integrated windows security' I get a very strange error:
- accessing the website from a PC within the network, doesn't work
(HTTP500
The page can not be displayed)
- accessing the website from outside the network, using a VPN connection,
prompts for usercredentials, and then works fine.
In both cases I'm using the same user.
Why doesn't this work from inside the network.
The same application works fine on Win2000 server.- Hide quoted text -
