Few
Days before, in our project, we faced one issue while browsing the site. Don’t
know, what gone wrong but got error message as mentioned below:-
Server Error in '/' Application.
HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its
dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily
unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled
correctly
The resource cannot be found.
The resource cannot be found.
Even
if you have activated the possibility to see errors and trace in SharePoint
(Web application web.config --> callstack="true",
customerror="off", debug="true") you won't have a precise
indication of what ressource is missing.
How
to troubleshoot this error message? Here is the answer...
There are two ways by which you can resolve this error message:-
Method:
1
Just
right click your page and choose "view source"
Method:
2
Under the root path in IIS configuration, under "Home
Directory"under the field "local path".
"c:\inetpub\mywebsite\" is not the same as "c:\inetpub\mywebsite"
apparently now.
My site came back alive as soon as I removed the trailing
backslash so that the path now says "c:\inetpub\mywebsite"
If
you have any queries/questions regarding the above mentioned information then
please let me know. I would be more than happy to help you as well as resolves
your issues, Thank you.
Getting the above error all of a sudden after having some DNS issues which I don't see how could relate to this. We also did a side by side of WSS 3 and SBS's companyweb so the WSS3 is working fine but the companyweb gives the above error. Any ideas?
ReplyDeleteWhat excately you found when u follow the first step? i.e. view source, did u find anything that points out to some error. also, are u able to go to _layouts/settings.aspx or _layouts/viewlsts.aspx? Please send me that page when u right click on that error message and view source... my mail id:- amghuge@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteHi amol,
ReplyDeleteSameer here,after long time
Its good blog. I have tried all the methods you mentioned in it but it dint work for me . In my case the pages were not there in the default path. As i have noticed the default page was opening as the same as the default web site not as the company web, so i found out the companyweb home page from the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot
and had to copy paste to the default location - IISRESET and it worked. I was not able to change the default location of the pages cause all pages were not at the same location. But yes finally it worked.
If you have any other interesting issue let me know would like to discuss here.
Thanks Sameer!! It's really good that you like my blog.. I will definately let you know if anything to discuss... Thanks again!!
ReplyDeleteHi Amol. How are you? Nice that you have very usefull info on your blog.
ReplyDeleteI have one issue with the list in MOSS 2007
We have list . We have to avoid the Items duplicating in a UI level. How can we do this.
Can you Please help me out. Thanks
Hello Yogesh,
ReplyDeleteI am doing good and yourself ?
Every List consist of Item ID column which can be enabled by means view settings.This ID column makes the entries of unique values. make this column as mandatory so that every item can be identified by unique values.
Apart from this-Please refer the below mentioned link: http://features.codeplex.com/
Under the most popular feature->Please refer the 'Unique Column Policy' which works perfectly in this scenario if you have do customizations..
Please test this before implementing directly in production so that everything will be clear.
Thanks a lot once again for appreciating my Blog...
Please let me know in case of any queries/questions....Thanks..
Hi!
ReplyDeleteThe same error is appearing everytime I try to set the in-coming email settings on Discussion Board/Document library. I was able to configure and receive the mails from all the users without any issues but not anymore. Please let me know if you have any solution for this.
Is this happening only on specific site collection? or all site collections?
DeleteIs this happening only for those specific libraries / custom lists?
Can you please check the sp logs and paste here so that we can troubleshoot further? Thanks for your patience..
Thanks.
