SBzengine issue Riddick PC game

Post by Strom »

i get this message when I try to play the game. I found a "fix" for it, but I have no idea what it all means, Im not the most computer literate person in the world. Could someone please explain to me how to apply the fix, thanks

Open up the web.config in NOTEPAD, locate the "CustomError" teg, and change that to off instead of whatever it is now, save it, and restart the game.

(A lot of config files are now written in XML)

use Windows' search feature.
Go to Start, then Search--with the magnifying glass icon.

Server Error in '/vug' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>


Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
After reading that page you linked to over, it looks like the only thing that those instruction will do is view a detailed error message remotely. It almost sounds like you need to create the 'web.config' file yourself.[/quote]
