HTTP 500.100 - Internal Server Error - ASP error

[Christopher_17]

I am preparing to move our site, as a test I moved the site to a new box and left the db where it currently sits(on a separate SQL server) the default page comes up fine, but when I try to access the db, I get the http 500.100 error, stating the server does not exist or access is denied. Any ideas?

Check the headers in your pages. Some of them probably refer back to the original server.

It would be better to import the web over to the new server. Importing takes care of having all of the headers correct.


Tjhis can also happen if you are using Server.CreateObject

Or by how permissions have been assigned.

Also, make sure that both Servers have the same patch level (SP's and hot fixes).

I suspect that there is a component installed on the inital server that is not installed or registered on the new server.

What call in the ASP page gives you the error?

[Jorge Pinto Leite]

Christopher, just two things for you to assure:
Are you using a connection that points to the db server?
Are the permissions correct in the db server?

Try setting response.buffer = false in your asp page. This will send the error output to the client as it is processed. You will see the actual reason for the error.
