Some IIS 7 specific settings hoster’s should be aware of
Some content has been posted on the IIS.NET site for IIS 7 specific settings that hosters should be aware of:
- Delegating ASP's scriptErrorSentToBrowser setting, described in http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/209/asp/ "Delegate the scriptErrorSentToBrowser setting" affects legacy ASP applications. In an effort to tighten security the scriptErrorSentToBrowser property is set to false by default. This makes it nearly impossible to troubleshoot classic ASP applications. The article explains the steps to safely delegate this setting to customers to enable them to get error information in the browser.
- Delegating errorMode in httpErrors, described in
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/405/httperrors/, refers to how to Delegate the errorMode setting to enable customers to get detailed information on errors, also important for troubleshooting tasks.
Customers not familiarized with Delegated Administration may want to read: Delegated Administration (http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/207/delegated-administration/).
