  1. I just signed on, my domain is in the process of being transferred (I hope), and I just uploaded my first project using 'Project/Copy Project' in VS 2003. I successfully copied and mapped my database, which I verified by changing some of my data on the DiscountASP server and running my project locally. I have been developing and testing it overall for a few months, so I know that the problem is settings-related, not in the code.

    When I try to connect to my uploaded project via a browser, at 'http://myUserName.web125.discountasp.net', I get the 'Web Page Unavailable' message (the title of which, by the way, is incorrectly named 'Webage Unavailable').

    I did manage (once) to connect 'by accident', as I got to my login page, but now that I'm trying to test whether my updated settings in web.config, setting customErrors mode='Off', I can't find my project again.

    Since I can upload files fine (as far as I know; don't yet have the hang of the Control Panel), I know that the basic address is correct, so I can't assume that once my domain name transfers that I'll be able to access it directly then, either.

    This is my first time with an ASP web app; my previous experience is with straight html and/or Flash. Is there a change that needs to be made to the web.config to include the new hosting address? I didn't upload to a custom directory as of yet; just straight to root.

    Thanks for any and all help you can provide.

    The error you are seeing means that the URL you use is invalid. Check the URL against the one in the Account Information Section in the control panel.
