Detailed Error messages not being displayed

[mgreen]

I have a Plesk 11.5 server that someone made changes to in IIS to allow web site users to turn the sending of detailed error messages on and off from a web.config file. Unfortunately now none of the sites will send detailed error messages to the browser no matter what is done. The person that made the changes to IIS did not document them properly and cannot tell me what exactly they changed. None of the obvious settings have made an effect on the problem.

Hi,

You did not mention what settings you exactly tried to enable it. You can check the below ones:

Check the web.config for the codes.
--- Web.config ---
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off" />
</system.web>

<system.webServer>
<httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" />
</system.webServer>
</configuration>

OR
--- Through IIS ---
1. Open the IIS7 manager
2. Select the Website and on its features view, double click on "Error Pages".
3. Right click and select the "Edit Feature Settings…" or select the same from the Actions pane (in the right hand side)
4. Select the "Detailed errors" radio button and click on OK
