The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.

Jeff Pagley — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 18:45:19 GMT

Hi SF Team,

I know it is Saturday, but I am trying to setup Enterprise Server to test. I have taken the time to read several posts on the forum to resolve this error, but to no avail and I am lost. One thing is I can successfully load the test website's default.htm page to make sure the site is up and running. One of the posts suggest to test to see if ES is running by trying to access the status.aspx page. I attempted to do this and I get this Server Error page:

Server Error in '/ES' Application.

Configuration Error

Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Before I go into anymore detail, I figure I need to make sure I can successfully load this page before anything else will start to work. What is the problem?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Trent,

Thank you so much for the example. :D I'm using VB.NET, but after looking at the example, I believe I can convert the C# code.

RE: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.

Trent L. Taylor — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 10:23:57 GMT

To save you some time, I have created a sample showing how to do this. I couldn't remember what language you used, so it is in C#. It is easy to convert, though, and I will try to post a VB.NET sample later. But either way, this should get you going and you can see what I was getting at. Here is that sample:

Hi Trent,

I agree with you. I am going to have to provide some filtering capabilities for the client that will meet his requirements as you suggested. I have no experience with threading. So would you provide me some code examples about how I can accomplish this incremental search.

Thanks,

Jeff

RE: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.

Trent L. Taylor — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 09:40:19 GMT

This would be on the SqlCommand, not the server timeout. So you would create the SqlCommand and set the timeout to a really high number or 0 for infinite.

However, let me suggest possible another route. Why would you need all 100,000 records at once? If you are trying to perform an incremental search, then you can create a threaded loader so that every time you type in a new character, it gets added to the queue, gets passed over to the server to s SPROC which executes the query, and sends back a TOP result set. Generally I limit my TOP results to 100 (or possible 1000) when I do something like this. This way you get a really fast, real-time search. To date, I have never needed or seen a reason for having 100,000 records client side.

Jeff Pagley — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:00:46 GMT

Good news. ES is finally up and running on my test server.:w00t: I hope that once I get my testing done that my production server will be a lot easier to setup.:D

One question I do have. The database has a table with over 100,000 records that the client needs to see all at one time, but I got a timeout error when loading these records into a grid using a BO mapped to SQL Server View. Where do I increase the timeout to adjust for loading these records using ES?

Thanks,

Jeff

Sorry about that! I had the form pulled up but didn't press save :).

You should be good to re-register now.

Jeff, I have reset your ES license again so that you can take another stab at it. Let me know if this doesn't get you going.

Hi Dustin,

[quote]I've freed up your activation in case this is hte issue. If it is, re-activate enterprise server, this time being sure to attach it to your external network card.[/quote]

My licenses have not been reset as you said so I can re-activate it with the settings I now have for my test server. I have move the test server outside of the firewall/proxy and gave it a new URL to eliminate any problems caused by them. Please reset the licenses so I can update it with the new URL. The MAC address is still the same.

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff Pagley — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 14:03:18 GMT

Hi Dustin,

[quote]1) The IP that came accross when you activates was 127.0.0.1. You did attatch the license to your external network card, not one used for your internal netowrk, correct? In other words, your external IP to your website will be attached to one of your network cards. That is the network card that you need to attach the ES license to. I've freed up your activation in case this is hte issue. If it is, re-activate enterprise server, this time being sure to attach it to your external network card.[/quote]

Now that you mention this. My server does NOT have 2 nic cards, but I think my network admin put the server behind a proxy/firewall. I do not know a whole lot about this stuff, but I think this may be distorting the MAC Address/IP Address references. Is this a probable cause? I will discuss this with my admin.

[quote]2) It is possible that it is pulling licensing informaiton from an incorrect MicroFour License.dll. You may check to ensure you don't have any extra copies of that .dll in the GAC or in another folder that the ES might be grabbing unexpectedly. If so, remove them, restart the website, and see if that alleviates the issue.[/quote]

I did not find MicroFour License.dll listed in the GAC. Therefore, this should not be a problem.

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Sorry for the delay here. Two things to check:

1) The IP that came accross when you activates was 127.0.0.1. You did attatch the license to your external network card, not one used for your internal netowrk, correct? In other words, your external IP to your website will be attached to one of your network cards. That is the network card that you need to attach the ES license to. I've freed up your activation in case this is hte issue. If it is, re-activate enterprise server, this time being sure to attach it to your external network card.

2) It is possible that it is pulling licensing informaiton from an incorrect MicroFour License.dll. You may check to ensure you don't have any extra copies of that .dll in the GAC or in another folder that the ES might be grabbing unexpectedly. If so, remove them, restart the website, and see if that alleviates the issue.

I have double check the MAC address to make sure it is correct. And the hostname is correct because I am able to view the status page from the client machine by adding the IP address to the web.config fiile.

Dustin Taylor — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 10:07:25 GMT

What does the status page of ES show you? Is it up and connecting without issue?

If so, do you have the SMTP settings for ES set up propery? If you do, what was the error message it e-mailed you related to that failed connection?

If not, I'd recommend setting up the SMTP than restarting the website. That way, ES will e-mail you the actual error, which will give us more to go on than a generic HTTP response.

Hi Keith,

[quote]I believe the following has to be changed in your datasources.config

I did try to do this, but I was getting another error. So I restored a fresh copy of the datasources.config, made the change, stop/started IIS and it worked! Now that I can load the Status page successfully. I will attempt to connect my application to it.

Thanks,

Hi Dustin,

I have setup ES on the Windows 2003 Server using the zip file. I activated the license file and I have placed it in the \bin directory.

Then I installed Windows 2003 Server Service Pack 2, SQL Server Express 2005 and Express Management Studio.

After those installations, I am now getting this error when I attempt to load the status.aspx page:

Jeff Pagley — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 13:38:46 GMT

Hi Dustin,

The server we were going to use for testing is hosting our forum. Since we are having a few problems with ES running on this server, I prefer to move ES to other another server we have decided to retired which is running Windows 2003 Server. This way if something goes wrong with the setup and testing it would not effect one of our production server (i.e. our Forum). Hopefully making this change will enable everything to go smoothly for setting up and testing ES since it is a Windows 2003 Server without an InstantASP product installed on it.

One thing I do need is for you to reset my license so I can assign the new MAC address to the licenses.

My goal is to get ES up and running in the next couple of days so we can start our testing as soon as possible.

Thank you for your help.

Jeff

The address you go to depends on how you configure ES, most likely the /es subdomain.

Can you post the full Web.config for me? I just downloaded the web.config from the strataframe site, and below is the unconfigured file, with no mention of InstanASP. Sounds like they got mixed up somehow on your server.

Also, would loading from the .exe be an option? That might help everything get lined up without issue.

Here is my unconfigured, unaltered web.config file:
