Hi Darin , I just tried that. Since the site is mirrored on 2 diff webservers, I stopped and restarted the site one at a time. Still no luck.
Any more suggestions? anything to do with permissions or properties of VDocuments virtual directory attached is snapshot of Vdocuments virtual directory. Have a look if it makes sense with the code I sent above. Mischa, *Great suggestion*. I right clicked the image file from iis and said browse. The browser window opened and i got page cannot be displayed screen There is a problem with the page you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. ------------------------------ Please try the following: - Contact the Web site administrator to inform them that this error has occured for this URL address. HTTP Error 500 - Internal server error. Internet Information Services (IIS) what could be wrong???? Ajas.
