Answer 1

Here is a critical question and something to try:

Does the website work on your development machine?

1. If it does work then check the url for the pages in the SiteMap. If the URL for the pages in the SiteMap reference a physical directory such as "C:\mySite\MyPage.aspx" then that is the most likely cause. You want to ensure that the URLs refernce the page location through a relative path like "~/MyPage.aspx".

2. If it does not work, then verify that there are no typing errors in the URLS. Once you getting it working on a local development environment using relative paths then the chance of it working on a remote machine should go up considerably.
