SYMPTOMS
When you try to access an intranet site through Mobile Information Server 2001 1.0 with the Intranet Browse component enabled, you cannot connect and view the page after authentication.

The following events are logged in the Application log:

Event Type: Information

Event Source: Mobile Information Server HTTP Connector

Event Category: None

Event ID: 20

User: N/A

Computer: MISServer

Description:

Reached maximum retry limit for HTTP Request: The operation completed successfully.

-and-

Event Type: Error

Event Source: MIS IntranetBrowse

Event Category: None

Event ID: 861

User: N/A

Computer: MISServer

Description:

The intranet site MENU is present in the list of allowed browse sites, but failed a browse request with status 401 Access Denied. This may indicate a configuration problem with the site.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the URL that you are trying to access on the intranet site is either invalid, malformed, or it is not in the Intranet Browse access list.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem:  Verify the settings on the Intranet Browse access list:  In Mobile Information Server, click Start, point to Programs, point to Mobile Information Server, and then click System Manager. Right-click the Mobile Information Server Installation object, and then click Properties. On the Intranet Browse Sites tab, verify that you listed the site name, and that you typed it correctly.

The value that you specify here must be the name of a Web server. You cannot specify a particular virtual folder or intranet page. For example, if the server is named &quot;sales&quot;, you should type sales .  Verify that the intranet site is valid and that you can access it through a phone simulator on the intranet:  Install the Phone.Com/Openwave WAP browsing simulator from the following Web site:Microsoft provides third-party contact information to help you find technical support.
