Are you logging exceptions anywhere?
If yes check the logs.
If no, check the event log on the server. It should have entry for the exception. You may also check IIS logs and HttpErr log file (IIS 6.0 and above).

Which OS is installed on your server and what version of IIS are you using?

I would suggest you to search Google for "Event log" and "IIS Log" for more information.
If you don't understand, let me know, I will try to explain you in detail.

Hi i am using windows xp and my iis version is 5.1

so what should i need to do to avoid the server error pla explain me in detail...
I am not able to post comments (:confused: :doh: ). So putting up an answer.

To avoid an error, you must first know what the error is.
Have you hosted your application properly?

Okhay, do one thing, right click on MyComputer and select 'Manage'.
When the Computer Management window opens up, expand 'Event Viewer' and select Application. Check if there is any ASP related entry. Also you can check the log files at this path: C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles (considering OS is installed in c: drive)
