Hi

I'm trying to modify the web page that states:

"The page cannot be displayed

The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The web site
might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to
adjust you browser settings."

There is then a list of things to try, but it never specifies a HTTP
error such as HTTP 400 or 401.

Therefore whilst I know you can modify the custom errors found on the
such named tab of IIS, it doesn't contain the specific web page
descirbed above.

Anybody know where the page is served from or have any ideas where
this resides, it would be much appreciated.

If you are not sure exactly which page it is that is being returned I
will email you a screenshot to clarify.

thanks in advance

Paul

Hi,

All the default custom error pages are served from following location.
%windir%\help\iishelp\common\

Chaitanya

That is generated by the browser (IE)

If you disable "Show Friendly HTTP Errors" in IE Advanced settings, you'll
probably see a HTTP status code (or a DNS error message)

Cheers
