I'll review the config files to see if there is any corrupt data.

  Re: lock violation Reply Contact I've been struggling with a similar issue (if not the same issue) for the last couple of days, and I've found a work around, but I'm not sure if it's the best solution. I noticed that almost all the native Modules for my machine at the root level were showing as "Locked" (or within the section of the applicationHost.config module items had the "lockItem" attribute set to "true"). I went about unlocking them through IIS Manager, and once that was done I can access the problematic site's modules configuration. Hope this helps! Nat

  Re: lock violation Reply Contact Could you give more information about when you see this error? Is it while browsing a specific site, or is it when using IIS Manager? Could you run: appcmd list config that will list all the configuration at the server and if something is broken it will be flagged. However more likely it is due to a site or application violating a lock, so for that run: appcmd list config "Your Site" or appcmd list config "Your Site/YourApp" This will probably give more details around where the lock violation is occurring, please provide those details.

  Re: lock violation Reply Contact Are you connected locally to the machine (or using IIS to connect remotely to another server)? Are you running Service Pack 2? Could you open %windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config and search for httpErrors and post the following ones: You will find a section definition something like: <section name="httpErrors" overrideModeDefault="Deny" /> then you will find it inside something like: <httpErrors>, is it inside a <location path=> element, or as a top element? Is it ever inside a <location path, and if it is what is the overrideMode attribute in the <location? Finally could you tell us in the Status Bar of IIS manager when you are inside the Error Pages feature what is shown on it? Is it saying something like "Configuration 'localhost' applicationHost.config, <location..."  or is it saying something like '... web.config'?

Could you share the settings you are using to add it? Also, do you see a lockAttributes or lockItem inside the <httpErrors> element?
