Cannot delete attribute and clear log in IIS

Permalink
I cannot delete a Page & Theme attribute. I first go to Full Dashboard >>
Pages & Themes >> Attributes. I click on the title of the attribute I would like to remove and the display window opens. When I click on the Delete Attribute button, and click OK when prompted : "Are you sure you want to remove this attribute?" Then I get the follow error message in my browser window: (I am able to use the back button in my browser to return to my C5 site after this runtime error occurs)

Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable 
on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" 
configuration file located in the root directory of the current web 
application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute 
set to "Off".
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Unfortunately this Runtime error is just having telling me I have an error
and not what it is. I included my environment in this post, so may notice
that my site is running on IIS 7.5. I imagine my runtime error may be
directly conntected to this.

I can also get the same above mentioned runtime error when I click on the
Clear Log button through Full Dashboard >> Reports >> Logs.

I know Concrete5 is designed to run on a LAMP stack. However I have seem
some postings on these forums were users are running successfully on a
Windows server. If I can figure out why I am getting a runtime error on when C5 is performing these two functions I am really comfortable with my IIS setup.

My ISP offers amazing tech support, and I would like to open up a ticket
with them regarding this. However the runtime error is not providing me with enough information to get started. So I thought I would start with a forum posting in the community to see if their are any IIS experts out there.

Any helpful advice is appreciated!

Thanks,

Have you done as suggested by the error message? Per default IIS has CustomErrors set to On as to not show the world what is happening on your server (to prevent injections and so on).

If you have access to the the web server you could set the error level to 'Detailed errors' on the site (see attached). Once you have found out your problem you should set it back to 'Custom error pages'.
