If you are building new site use the latest version of asp.net if you need to modify something allready existing I'm afraid I cant give you the right answer. That you need to discuss with your boss or coleagues.

Could you post the error message please or a screenshot?

I am only trying to setup .net framework 3.5 on the server, this is for completely new website.

the problem is i am not even getting any error message at all on the page, if you please follow the above url, it has basic html tags and plain welcome text for testing ..

i even tried to set the customerror mode = off but still nothing happens...

please advice

enba

Can you check if it is set to Off and not to off? It is case sensitive if I remember well.

I have changed it as suggested above, the message still remains the same.
I probably need to explain the directory structure on the server in bit detail

E:\abc\www\website1
E:\abc\www\website2
E:\abc\www\website3
E:\abc\www\website4

In IIS, there was a site created for www root, and so every other site in WWW gets a folder treatment, in my case
http://213.253.134.41/netsity

The default WWW is already been created as a site in IIS

I dont know where else I would need to do a change now, Please advice. thanks for your time
