I am getting the same error on my IPad when going to a specific website (so is my husband on his IPad) (Server Error in '/" Application - Object reference not set to an instance of an object) however we can reach this site with no problem on our Iphone or on our desktop computer. How is that a "site" problem when the only device having a problem is our IPads? The website is is www.hotwheelscollectors.com by the say. Please help - husband is about to lose his mind as he is a hotwheel junkie.

I'm trying to get into a website and this is the message I get:


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>


Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.



<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->


<configuration>

<system.web>

<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>

</system.web>

</configuration>

I was able to correct this by going to Settings, Safari, and Clear Cookies and Data. I found this out by contacting the technical support for the website itself. I probably talked to someone in India for about five minutes and they figured it out. Apple support wouldn't help me with this unless I paid $79 for support! Very frustrating.
