Hello friends, I have moved a classic ASP site from shared hosting IIS 6 site to shared IIS 8 host that uses Plesk, so the only control of IIS is via a few settings in Plesk, or web.config. I have set Plesk to enable ASP support and ASP.NET support. But after that here is the problem shows up, i can't get enable Parent Paths to work. I also cannot get detailed errors displayed. My initial web.config probably has stuff only relevant to ASP.NET, but I have been trying all sorts of suggestions from forums. So, i would love to simplify. I just want classic ASP with ParentPaths and (temporarily) detailed error reporting. For reference, I used Hostforlife.eu hosting service. I have asked to them about my problem and their tech Support suggested a simpler web.config that allowed me to see detailed errors. They do not know how to enable Parent Paths, but those are not always a good idea and it was easy enough to manually change /../../filename to a full path. Here is the web.config that allows me to see detailed errors during debugging: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" /> </system.webServer> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off" /> <compilation debug="true" /> </system.web> </configuration> And this was the version that did not work: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <location path="mydomain.com" overrideMode="Allow"> <system.webServer> <httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" existingResponse="PassThrough" /> <asp enableParentPaths="true" appAllowDebugging="true" scriptErrorSentToBrowser="true"> <session keepSessionIdSecure="false" /> </asp> </system.webServer> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off" /> <compilation debug="true" /> <authentication mode="None" /> <trust level="Full" /> </system.web> </location> </configuration> So, are you have a suggestion how to enable ParentPaths and (temporarily) detailed error reporting in my new IIS 8 and web.config? Please help me. Thanks in advance.
