Asp.net 2.0 form page ("Page not found")

[simpgmr]

I have an ASP.NET 2.0 web site that I have been developing in my machine. (Windows xp, visual stuidio 2005) On this web site I have a contact us page where the user fills out a form and clicks send. I have visual basic code ouside of the aspx file that sends the email. When I run it on the machine I developed it with it works fine. I copied it to our web server (w2k IIS 5.0) The whole site works fine except one thing. When I fill out the form and select send, I get a Page cannot be found messege and it does not send the email. HELP!
Thanks
Simeon

Page cannot be found ? Are you redirecting somewhere? Maybe you have an error page to show a friendly message to the user, and that page cannot be found.
Also check the smpt... etc.. server 'stuff'. Check if you allow mails to be sent from the real server. (cant help more on that)

I am not using a redirect yet. I just wanted to test the form. When you say from the "real server". Are you just asking if the web server it's self is configured to send out emails? It does. I get message number one below when I click send or reset. Then I get message number two if I select go after the first error message comes up. HELP!

Is the web site set up for .net 2.0. go to properties of the web site and there should be a tab that says "ASP.NET" there you can select the framework you want.

The viewstate should take care of keeping your values make sure it's on. Also don't forget to use POSTBACK.

Are you doing any sort of load balancing on the server? If so then you'll need to explicitly state the machine key in the web.config file.
