    Wordpress running in /blog path

    Any ideas why /blog on my site is not allowing wordpress to run? 

     

    I have added an exclusion to the web.config, e.g. 

      <add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value="/umbraco/,/wordpress/,/blog/" />

     

    But I am getting a 500 error.

    Hi,

    We need a bit more info that 'I get a 500' error. Can you enable the Customerrors? (open te web.config, set customerrors to "Off" instead of "RemoteOnly"

    On a sidenote, can you first check if the folder 'blog' is configured as application in IIS? If so, remove the application so it becomes a folder.

    HTH,

    Peter

    Custom errors are off, 

    500 - Internal server error 

    The message is an umbraco page - which is kinda weird as I expected umbraco to not handle the request.

    Uhm sorry, umbraco does not generate 'internal server error'-pages like that. It's an IIS page.

    Does it say any other info? a 500 error can be many things, so only saying that it gives you a 500-internal server error isn't helping.

    Did you check if the blog-folder is setup as an application in IIS?

    Shared hosting, I dont think I can tell - however, I dont think - I created the folder then uploaded the contents. Its unlikely this folder is a specific IIS application.

    I have asked the hos to check. 

    "The message is an umbraco page" - sorry, yes - its just the formatted umbraco style.

    There are no virtual directories defined.
