View 7 RepliesI am using Httphandler to access my pages. Have Loginstatus Control on the master pages.
OnLoggingOut for the Loginstatus control I am doing a Session.abandon()... But My session_end
does not get called in the Gobal.asax.I tried link button and everything. but when I take out the httphandler the Session_end gets executed in global.asax
I can handle the full session end on my own but is there any way to call Session_end in global.asax?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to secure my web application so XML files it contains can't be downloaded. I thought it would be as simple as adding these to the "httpHandlers" section of web.config:
<remove verb="*" path="*.xml"/>
<add verb="*" path="*.xml" type="System.Web.HttpForbiddenHandler"/>
This failed - the XML files could still be downloaded easily. I tried different browsers in case they were caching, but everything could download the XML files without any trouble. I thought this might be due to some special handling of XML, so I tried mocking up an alternative based on ".txt123" files. I added this file with some dummy content:

We have a handler to deal with .dat files.. everything is already setup and server is acknowledging the file type and doing its thing to handle it..
But the handler requires 1 bit of information along with the HTTP request which is a physical file path.. the file name it knows based on the file we call , but how can i pass a custom header along with the request so that the handler will use that when the request is made?
Basically when on our player.aspx page, i will have a button, when you click that button a request is made to the .dat file, but along with that request i need to send the physical file path.. how can i do that?
How do I avoid ASP.NET session timeout from a httphandler?
View 1 RepliesI need to access image files (.jpg) on a server other than the web server my app runs on. I would like to use an httphandler to do this but I am unsure of the syntax to specify the path. I have tried mapping a drive on the web server to the file server but that didn't work. I have tried using a UNC path but that did not work either.

I am using uploadify for a photography site I am building. I have an HTTPHandler that I'm using to save the posted file. What I am wondering is if I can resize images, insert a record of the image into a db and save the image from the HTTPHandler? This is my first experience with HTTPHandlers so forgive me if there is an obivious answer for this.
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with large respones and IIS7, the server runs out of memory. I've written the test code below that works pretty much like my real code... When i start to download the file i can se the memory usage rise until it hits 100% and Firefox complaints about lost connection to server, looks like IIS7 does not release cache or something.. Works in IIS6 by the way

How can I handle URLs with illegal characters such that they don't throw an unhandled exception? I tried an HttpModule but that doesn't catch the error. I'm using IIS6 and .Net 2.0.
View 2 RepliesI've tried to implement two different solutions that use either and HttpModule or and HttpHandler to do URLRewriting for me. These work great on IIS 7 within my local development environment in Integrated and Classic modes. Currently the production server is running IIS 6.0 on a shared hosting environment. It appears that the request at least hits both the Module and Handler as the URL above redirect to the particular friendly url, but it doesn't redirect and hit hte Module or Handler again. Instead I get a 404 error for the friendly URL.

here i am using only just one property.

After adding a custom module, Module list is showing MyModule "Entry Type" as "Local".
and Entry Type of all other modules is "Inherited".
what is Entry Type and difference between "Local" and "Inherited"?

View 3 RepliesI have an application that uses an Asynchronous HttpHandler for retrieving images from a fileshare It appears the performance of this is quite poor. I have two questions:1. Does it make sense to use an IHttpAsyncHandler for this or will an IHttpHandler work fine? I have four images on a page that need to be loaded this way and it seems that they all load sequentially instead of in parallel. Since we have some JavaScript in the body onload event, it doesn't get excuted until all four images are finished loadingy bearing on this.
View 1 RepliesI had a look through some of the older questions, but I can't find anything.I have a Wildcard HttpHandler on my web app which is processing the url and working out if it can do anything with itIf it can't, then the StaticFile Handler should pick it up and just serve it as a static file (like an html file).The problem is, it's going through the Wildcard handler, then seemingly not going to the StaticFileHander. Is there something I need to do to the Wildcard handler, or in the web config?This is my web.config:
<add name="Wildcard" path="*" verb="*" type="Rewriter.RewriterHttpModule"
modules="IsapiModule" requireAccess="None" allowPathInfo="false"
preCondition="" responseBufferLimit="4194304" />
<add name="StaticFile" path="*.*" verb="*"
modules="StaticFileModule,DefaultDocumentModule,DirectoryListingModule"
scriptProcessor="%windir%Microsoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727aspnet_isapi.dll"
resourceType="File" requireAccess="Read" allowPathInfo="false" preCondition=""
responseBufferLimit="4194304" />
I'm using a HttpHandler to intercept PDF file download requests and modify the PDF file. I'm stuck on what to do if the requested file doesn't exist on the webserver. If I handle the Exception and return an empty response, it gives the user a 0 byte file to download. If I ignore the Exception, then ASP.NET catches it and the user is redirected to my unfriendly customError page.
