Internet Information Services (IIS)

Technical Information (for support personnel)

Go to Microsoft Product Support Services (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=8180) and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 401.
Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled About Security, Access Control, and About Custom Error Messages.

Thats the error page.
I have no experience with IIS or Windows as i've used linux in the past.

Anyone help me how to get rid of that.

Learn to use IIS! No quick solution, IIS has a lot of settings that can produce that error. Use the MMC (start-run-type mmc hit return) snapin for IIS to go through the security/permissions settings.

Did a login dialog box appear?
Is anonymous access turned off?
Check the permissions of the folders?
Does the IUSR_<ComputerName> have read and execute permissions to the folders?
Check ASP.NET permissions.

I would bet that it is folder permissions that is causing your problem.

There is alot of things to check. If you are on a shared hosting plan - check with your provider - they should be able to help you.


Thanks,
