Siebel IP2016 – Siebel Enterprise Server Config Issues Part 5

Issue#5 HTTP Error 500.0 Internal Server Error

Environment:
OS:Windows Server 2012R2
Siebel Version: 16

Issue:

  • The Gateway and Siebel server is installed and running. The SWSE also installed without any issues.
  • But accessing Thin application URL gives below error

“HTTP Error 500.0 Internal Server Error
The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.”

Cause:

Microsoft Windows Server 2008, 2012 R2 with SP1 or above (64-bit) supports Microsoft IIS 7.5 (32-bit compatibility).   By default, IIS 7.5 will use 64-bit compatibility, which is not supported by Siebel applications.  Therefore, the application throws HTTP Error 500.0 Internal Server Error.

Solution:

We have to enable 32-bit mode on ISS 8 in Windows Server 2012 r2 to make it compatible with Siebel application.

 

  • Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager:
    • On the taskbar, click Server Manager, click Tools, and then click Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
    • In the Connections pane, expand the server name, and then click Application Pools.
    • In the Actions pane, click Set Application Pool Defaults…
      applicationPoolDefaults_howto_1-small
    • On the Application Pool Defaults dialog box, specify your desired options.
      applicationPoolDefaults_howto_2-small

 

enable32BitAppOnWin64 Optional Boolean attribute.

When true, enables a 32-bit application to run on a computer that runs a 64-bit version of Windows.

The default value is false.

 

  • When you have finished specifying your settings, click OK.
  • Restart your machine
