Unable to login running on win server 2003

Hello,

Let me start by saying that I had to modify most of the files in the project by removing most traces of â/ThePhileâ from e.g.
<Ahref="http://localhost/ThePhile/Modules/NewsManager/ShowHeadlines.aspx">
<%@ Register TagPrefix="WroxUser" TagName="SiteHeader" Src="/ThePhile/Controls/SiteHeader.ascx" %>
to have the site partially running.

My main problem is trying to login. When I try I get an error.

Application Error

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An unexpected error has occurred in this Application. The system administrators have been notified. Please feel free to contact us with the information surrounding this error.
The error occurred in: http://67.68.203.40/ThePhile/Modules/Users/Login.aspx
Error Message: Exception of type System.Web.HttpException was thrown.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stack Trace:

So what I did was delete â/ThePhileâ from the SiteHeader.ascx.cs file UserLink.NavigateUrl = "/ThePhile/Modules/Users/Login.aspx" and the from the web.config file

<authentication mode="Forms">
        <forms name="ThePhile" path="/" loginUrl="/ThePhile/Modules/Users/Login.aspx"
            protection="All" timeout="30">
        </forms>
    </authentication>

I tried to login and once again I got the same error message.

Why is it when I run the web app. and I place the mouse over the hyperlink âclick to loginâ on the site header
I see at the bottom of the browser http://69.70.49.31/ThePhile/Modules/Users?Login.aspx even after I removed the â/ThePhileâ from files mentioned above?

I also noticed when I viewed the source from the browser, it also referenced the login url http://69.70.49.31/ThePhile/Modules/Users?Login.aspx

            </td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

My setup consisted of setting the ThePhile web app. as new web site âNOT UNDER THE DEFAULT WEB SITEâ
in IIS 6.0, and security under anonymous users.

By no means am I a guru in asp.net and c# so any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Karl

It can't find the login file here:
<authentication mode="Forms">
        <forms name="ThePhile" path="/" loginUrl="/ThePhile/Modules/Users/Login.aspx"
            protection="All" timeout="30">
        </forms>
    </authentication>

If your site is online you may want to hard code the loginUrl to the absolute path. For example:
<authentication mode="Forms">
        <forms name="ThePhile" path="/" loginUrl="http://www.thephile.com/Modules/Users/Login.aspx"
            protection="All" timeout="30">
        </forms>
    </authentication>
