The error sounds like it is not with IIS but an application running on IIS,
like ASP.Net.
You'll want to enable custom errors to get more details and go from there.
Depending on your configuration, there can be millions of ways why it works
on their local machines but not your server, so it's not interesting/easy to
start from that perspective. Start with the actual error and work back to
the cause. Then, make sure you have appropriate processes such that
developer server and your actual server match in configuration and security
settings so that you don't have to do this in the future.

Thanks David, The Developers are in the VS Developers group, they are also able to publish to the server successfully. In IIS Administator I can see the published application on the remote IIS server. The problem is however when they try to browse to the application through IE using http://TestServer/dev/testapp.rem?wsdl they do not get the same XML view as browsing on their local machines (http://LocalHost/dev/testapp.rem?wsdl). Instead the "Server encounded an internal error" message is displayed. Any ideas what might cause that? "David Wang [Msft]" wrote: > Change the ASP.Net custom error setting in machine.config .
