Do you have a detailed error message to know what the issue is?

You may also want to check that you have read, write, and modify permissions set for your IUSR account on the forums upload folder.

Just:

The website cannot display the page

HTTP 500

Most likely causes:

The website is under maintenance.
The website has a programming error.

What you can try:

bullet.png Refresh the page.

bullet.png Go back to the previous page.

# - up.png - More information More information

This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying.

For more information about HTTP errors, see Help.

That is not a detailed error message. A detailed error message gives a line number and what error is thrown by that line.

You need to turn off friendly HTTP errors in IE to get a detailed error message, if you are using IIS 7 then you also need to configure the server to send detailed errors to the browser.

tHanks - Firefox gives :

Path not found
/forum/functions/functions_upload.asp
752

which in turn is the line:

'Create an XML file with user details; TODO, add feature to be able to add notes
Set objUserXMLfile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(Server.MapPath(strFolder) & "\folder_info.xml", True)

Make sure that you have set read, write, and modify permissions on your forums 'upload' folder. If that does not help try upgrading your forum as the version you are using 9.56 is 3 years old and does have known bugs and security vulnerabilities with the upload tools.

You can find both the latest version 10.03 and 9.74 on the http://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-downloads.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums download page .
