I get this message in some browsers when I go to
http://www.mysite.ac.uk/mysite which is meant to redirect to
https://www.mysite.ac.uk/mysite: "specified request cannot be executed from
current Application Pool". I think there is an answer to this somewhere but I
cannot locate it. Something to do with threads?

The message appeared in Internet explorer too if I turned off 'show friendly
HTTP error messages'. The nub of the matter was that we want to redirect to
https using an asp custom error page. But the request that was not being
allowed is to use a URL style custom error page - it had to be a file or
default one. If I used the default application pool it was OK, but we need to
isolate this application so it has its own application pool for it. Now if I
put the custom error page in another application in the same special
application pool, it works. Problem solved.

Hi,

This means that the actual error page you have does not reside in the same
app pool as where the error is being raised. Just move the error page to the
same location as where the error is occuring, and you'll be set.

Alternatively, there is a reg key you can set to get around this, but I
wouldn't recommend it if you can just move the custom error page instead.

Cheers
Ken
