Hi. I have a server which is having this error when I make a SOAP request.
Another server is not having this problem from the exact same client. I am
researching this error (helpful as it is) and see some info in MSDN Library:

"When users try to access content on a server that is running Internet
Information Services (IIS) through HTTP or File Transfer Protocol (FTP), IIS
returns a numeric code that indicates the status of the request. This status
code is recorded in the IIS log, and it may also be displayed in the Web
browser or FTP client. "

Where do I look for the IIS log? I found c:\winnt\iis5.log but it has no
entries recently, so my error is not appearing.

I also see:

"The server cannot complete the request because it encounters an error.
500 - Internal server error.
500.12 - Application is busy restarting on the Web server.
500.13 - Web server is too busy.
500.15 - Direct requests for Global.asa are not allowed.
500.16 - UNC authorization credentials incorrect. This error code is
specific to IIS 6.0.
500.18 - URL authorization store cannot be opened. This error code is
specific to IIS 6.0.
500.100 - Internal ASP error."

I am reasonably sure that the error is the first, "500 - Internal server
error" since that is the error text I receive.

Does anyone have any tips on how to troubleshoot this error?

Thanks

S

Hello,

The IIS log files are in:

C:\windows\system32\logfiles\w3svcXXX

In your webbrowser, disable "Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages" and you will
get a much more informative error message.

In Internet Explorer, Tools->Internet Options, click the Advanced tab.

Nothing in Event Log. I am striking out all over the place.

Thanks, though.
