    Browse directory

    I want to have a folder, where it is possible to browse the files in the browser.
    The folder "manuals" is in iis set to allow browsing, NETWORK SERVICE has read access.

    web.config is modified with:
      <location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
      <system.web>
        ..
      </system.web>
      </location>

    When browsing:
    http://mydomain.com/manuals/
    I become the error:
      500 - Internal server error.
      There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

    I have tried with a virtual folder, and a physical folder. No difference

    Any advice?

    Allan,

    Could be a permissions based problem. Allow everyone read access just to see if that fixes it. If it does then you at least know it is permissions

    IIS normally runs under the application pool account (IISAPPPOOL/name of application pool) unless you've changed it?

    Also check the IIS logs if the above doesn't help..
