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.

No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do.
You can't improve what you don't measure.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention,
sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents
the wise choice of many alternatives.
"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever."
