Its difficult to say from the config file. can you try setting the customerrors setting to off to render the actual error on page? Also, have a look in Fiddler or Firebug to intercept the request/response cycle and see whats the error.

1 solution

When the error is 500, that means it's an internal error, meaning internal to the service/web access - the service/web threw an exception that was not caught.
Look in the Windows event logs on the server to see what went wrong.

Also, try:
- Go to menu Tools/Internet Options in your IE.
- Click on the Advanced tab, uncheck "Show friendly HTTP error messages" option and click Ok.
- Try accessing your web page again. Now you will see much more meaningful error message which will help you to troubleshoot the problem.


Read about Error 500 here: HTTP Error 500 Internal server error[^]

Also this microsoft article: MS Support: How Web site administrators can troubleshoot an "HTTP 500 - Internal Server Error"[^]
