500 Internal Server error

Feb 21, 2013 04:54 PM|LINK

I am trying to deploy my website using godaddy. However, when I try to load my domain I get a 500 Internal Server error. I called godaddy, and they said that it may be a problem with my web.config file but they could not specifically tell me what the problem is. Unfortunately, I am a novice ASP.Net programmer so I am not sure what my problem is in this file. I am going to post the contents of the file below and I am asking if anyone can tell me if there is something wrong with my file. I developed the program using Visual Web Developer Express 2010;

IMO, if it builds on your machine and doesn't work on theirs, it sounds like them. If you got a .NET error then I'd say yes, it's probably you. If you got a 500 error (internal server error), that kind of explains the issue.

I'm not familiar with their services, but you are running a .NET 4.0 website. I would make sure they support it. Just because it says "Windows" hosting, doesn't mean they support or that it's configured for a .NET 4 website.

What you should do is change something in your web config that really does break the site like remove <system.web> and then try it and see what you get.

Hi aussijmasp,

I am surprised to know that GoDaddy cannot inform you the exact error message. It is actually their responsibility to inform you the error message and they can do it by checking the Windows Event Log. If they cannot inform, it can be either the staff who handled your inquiry is a newbie or they do not care about your issue.

There is no other way for you to look for the error message, except by contacting them to look for the message on the Windows Event Viewer. Well, there are tons of messages on this viewer and it may take time to specifically look for the error message on your site. However, they still have to do it though!

When you get the error message, you can paste it here so that I can make a suggestion. If they refuse to give the error message, I suggest you to look for a qualified ASP.NET host provider

Hope this helps!

I'm with Go Daddy and came across your post.

Are you still running into the 500 Internal Server error? If so I would be more than happy to look into it further and assist. Please feel free to reply or to send me a private message.
