When users post to some of my forums, they get a http 500 internal server error. Am running windows 2003, with Sql server IIS 6.
If they go back to the forum, it shows there post has not been posted, but when they refresh the forum that they posted in, it shows there post. http://www.nonprophets.com/forum/post_message.asp?PN=1 - http://www.nonprophets.com/forum/post_message.asp?PN=1 is the page that comes up with the 500 error. |

Disable friendly error messages in IE so you see what the actual error is. ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

Usually if you get an error while posting and the post is still posted
it means that the email settings for the forum are incorrect. Turn off any email functions you have enabled from the admin area, or contact your host to get the correct email settings for the server you are on. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

I just had a look at your forum and got the following error:-
/forum/functions/functions_send_mail.asp, line 137 This does indicate you have a problem with your email settings on the server. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

I got errors everywhere your forum tried to send emails, when
registering I got the forst one, when trying to send a topic, and when
posting in posts that people have requested email notification. You need to turn off the email features in the admin section to prevent this. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Dear all, I submitted a post in the support area asking a question regarding these server errors. I got them in multiple places. I actually forgot where I got them because I went in the code and fixed them as I went along. Some of them were due to problems converting nulls into integers and so on. I had to set some default values on some of the tables. Here is another error I get whenever I try to post a new thread. I have not actually gotten past that one and I wonder if you have a quick answer to this one.

This is a problem with ADO on the server you are on.
