Cannot see the error messages in IIS

 You can configure these settings by using IIS Manager. To do so, open IIS Manager and navigate to the site or application where you want to enable or disable script messages, and then double-click the ASP feature.

 In the list of ASP features, configure the Script Error Message and Send Errors To Browser options.

Nice details here on how to use security in ASP pages

Ref: https://community.sagecrm.com/partner_community/b/hints_tips_and_tricks/archive/2009/02/10/more-about-using-crm-security-in-asp-pages.aspx

Basically you use the CRM.Button API

 if (!CRM.Button("caption","image.gif", "url.asp","COMPANY","EDIT")) 
 {
   ...so something
 }

Parameters

1. Caption: The caption for the button. This is translated based on the user's language (providing there is a matching entry in CRM Translations).

2. ImageName: The image you want displayed on the button. All images need to be stored in the CRM directory 'Img' folder.

3. URL: The URL that this button links to. This can either be a link to a Web address or to a custom page in the CRM custom pages folder. (See URL below).

4. PermissionsEntity: PermissionsEntity is the name of the entity.

5. PermissionsType is either VIEW, EDIT, DELETE or INSERT, depending on the action of the button.

6. Target: This allows the TARGET property of the button's anchor () tag to be set.
