MVC :: Type Load Exception When Starting Debugging On New Compile?
Nov 21, 2010
I recently downloaded the mvc 3 RC and I am receiving a type load exception everytime i do a fresh compile and start a debugging session. The error is
System.TypeLoadException crossed a native/managed boundary
[code]...
I can click ok and my debug session continues working as normal. I can close the session and restart without making any code changes, and it will open and work correctly. But, everytime I close, make a compilable change and rerun, I get the message.
Partial Public Class a1_main Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load End Sub End Class
its completely blank. but when i try to debug it just to see design on aspx page it gives me this error -
Could not load type 'a1_main'.Line 1: <%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" codebehind="main.aspx.vb" Inherits="a1_main" %>
I am working on an ASP.NET project. When I am debugging, I often want to switch back from my browser to Visual Studio (2008) and edit some code. Visual Studio then won't let me edit the code, unless I explicitly quit debugging first.
Is there any way to configure Visual Studio such that is automatically stops debugging and allow me to edit the code, or do I have to stop it manually each and every time?
Disabling Edit and Continue does allow me to edit the code, but this does not force VS to stop debugging...
Specifically we're making our application compatible with the Out Of Process Session State server where all types saved in session must be serializable. Is there a way to see at compile time that any type put into HttpSessionState is marked with the Serializable attribute. Something along the lines of this 'non-valid' code
public static void Put<T>( string key, T value ) where T : IsMarkedWitheSerializableAttribute { HttpContext.Current.Session[key] = value; }
I have a hybrid ASP.Net web forms/MVC app. On one of the MVC "pages"/views, I have it render a bunch of dates using the ToShortDateString() and ToLongDateString(). These work correctly most of the time, but the first time I load the view after compiling the app, they are formatted incorrectly.
I traced this down and checked the current thread's culture. For 99% of the time it's en-US, but on the first load of the MVC view after compiling it is set to en-GB. If I reload the page immediately after that, it's back to en-US.
I have tried setting the culture and uiculture in the web.config file to en-US to force it to be correct, but no luck.
I have simple 3 tier web application and have mostly CRUDE functionalities. Recently I required to add new console application to the existing solution in which I call data layer methods for retrieving data from DB but I get an exception "The type initializer for threw an exception."When I debugged I found that the exception is thrown at datalayer on first line of class where I get connectionstring from
web.config, the code is public static readonly string CONNECT_STRING =
Now if I hardcode the connection string value like public static readonly string CONNECT_STRING = "Data Source=XYZ;uid=sa;password=XXX;initial catalog=ABC;"
it works fine.I don't understand what is the issue here as web application works fine with this datalayer.
Over the last week I've been investigating an issue for one of our clients whereby the initial page load following a deployment of their website takes around 1 minute, resulting in unacceptable downtime for end users. This was happening not only for code deplyments (bin dll's and .config files) but also if there were large numbers of .aspx pages updated. For code deployments it's not an issue, but for aspx updates it is; in this particular scenario, we are making use of a 3rd party content management system (RedDot from OpenText) in which every page of the site is published out as a distinct .aspx page. This means that for this website there's somewhere in the region of 2,400 separate .aspx pages. I realise this isn't an ideal situation but we're working within the constraints of the CMS, and we managed to correlate the instances where the site was unresponsive with App pool restarts, which also corresponded to publications of of .aspx pages.
I found an article by Tess Ferandez [URL] which describes all the reasons why the app pool may restart, and it does seem that if more than 15 .aspx pages are changed then the app pool will recycle and the pages will be re-compiled. Another msdn article [URL] then gave me a few pointers on how to start addressing this problem, and for the moment I've set a flag on the compilation options to prevent batch compilation:
<compilation batch="false">
This means that the initial page load now takes around 6 seconds instead of 1 minute, which is a great improvement. However, I also used the "Compilations Total" performance counter to investigate the number of pages that have been compiled by ASP.NET for my site and was quite surprised that the total number of pages that get compiled peaks at 44, which is odd given that there are 2,400 aspx pages in the site. If the batch flag is set to false, the counter slowly increments by 1 page at a time as you click around on the site; if batch mode is true, the initial compilation takes the number straight to 44 over the course of ~60 seconds. What I'm really struggling to understand is why all 2,400 pages aren't compiled. Does anyone have any inside info on what might be going on as all the documentation I've read seems to indicate that all of the pages should be compiled and this counter should be much higher.
I put a breakpoint on a Page_Load method for a .aspx page and I'm getting the following error when trying to run in debug mode:Quote:The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document.I checked the "Modules" window and the DLL for this project is not listed there, but it does list all the DLLs for the other projects in the solution. I also checked web.config and verified that debug="true".
I think this is a little tricky problem, but I need to solve it somehow. I have a texbox in my asp.net page. I want to show all names when a user types in a letter in that textbox, whatever names starting with that letter. the names are from a list generated by other function, pulled out from active directory. So for example: User types in "a" in a textbox then automactically names "aron" "asron" "amanda" in the list shows, and user can select one of those names.
I have a web service and its methods return a class which is name WSResult. WSResult has 2 properties. One of property's type is int and the other one's type is object. I want to return some different type with this second property.
[code]....
How can i pass an object which i retrieved from other web services or that i generated from my serializable classes inside M_ResultObject property ?
We have an asp.net 2.0 application in which we get the exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' whenever value is retrieved or stored in viewstate. It does not happen when we test it in local PC but when it is deployed on application server, the exception is thrown.
I have one issue , on that page i have Gridview ie: binding data(by making relationship b/w two tables ) ie: each row contains 75 EasyListbox control so it will be visible as per the condition ie: getting from Database.
But when the page_Loads on that page - First rows shows correctly ie: when i click on paging for Second page - it shows error like this
I want to log all errors happened in my App to sql db. I'm passing all exception properties like (ex.Message, ex.Source, ex.StackTrace, ex.TargetSite and ex.InnerException) to stored procedure.
The problem is that when I try to pass the ex.InnerException as string to stored procedure I got this error:
Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Exception' to 'string'
I tried ex.InnerException.ToString() and Convert.ToString (ex.InnerException) but no success.
I am getting Error Msg Given Below..After Uploading My WebApplication..whenever i try to access my webapplication? what is the exactly reason of this Error. Some time it solved automatically when i try some time later.
Server Error in '/' Application.
Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.OutOfMemoryException: Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.
I have ELMAH set up for a webapp, logging exceptions to a SQL server. I wish to have ELMAH send me an email too, but only when a specific exception is thrown (ie. MySpecialException). ELMAH must still log all exceptions to SQL server. I know you can do it programmatically in global.asax, but I'd prefer to use web.config. So, how do I restrict ELMAH error mails to filter out everything but a specific exception type, using web.config? UPDATE The filter ended up looking like this:
I am getting this exception whenever i tried to delete the WCF Service reference in project.I cannot even update it.Our WCF Service is bit huge and looks like this is causing the issue.I Start/Stopped IIS web server but still i cant get rid of it.
I'm using MVC, and in the controller, I'm using a linq to objects query which returns an anonymous type:
var results = from ... select new { ... };
I then pass this information to an untyped view:
return View(results);
I try to iterate through the data in the view:
<% foreach (var entry in Model)%>
...
<%: Html.Encode(entry.MyProperty) %>
However, I get a RuntimeBinderException: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'MyProperty'. However, oddly, if I hover above entry with the mouse, it does actually have MyProperty in the popup window, and the value is what I would expect,(apparently, the Visual Studio IDE knows what type it is).I can get around this problem by using a linq query which uses an explicit type and a parameterless constructor of the form:
IQueryable<SearchResult> results = from ... select new SearchResult { ... };
and creating a view model class which encapsulates the SearchResult data, which is then returned to a strongly typed view. However, I don't understand what the problem is with the first method.
Is there a better way to do this than to check for Exception string?
I would rather have this catch-all error handled on the page, but for SOAP exceptions (web-service calls) I need to log the details of the actual exception that occured on the server, not the client.
The ".Detail.InnerText" property isn't in a generic exception, and can only be gotten after casting a generic exception to a SOAP exception.
[Code]....
I would think there is a way to get at the underlying Exception's type without using string comparison.
All of a sudden I started getting this nasty exception all over the place:
The type initializer for 'System.Drawing.ToolboxBitmapAttribute' threw an exception.
Some relevant observations: * The error started occuring a few hours after the last deployment to the live server, not immediately after. So it basically started occuring of its own accord.
* We have recently moved to a new host (a VPS). The error only occurs on that server, not our local server nor at the old host's (which was a shared environment).
* The problem is basically the same as this: [URL]
* I tried reinstalling Ajax extensions, then our website in IIS, then finally the .Net 2 framework. But the error still occurs after all this.
* The error occurs on line 1, which is just the page directive: <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm1.aspx.cs" Inherits="Test.WebForm1" %>
I'm finding it difficult to get a decent trace, but here is one that our CMS provided:
The type initializer for 'System.Drawing.ToolboxBitmapAttribute' threw an exception. at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ProcessException(Exception ex) at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ParseStringInternal(String text, Encoding fileEncoding) at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ParseString(String text, VirtualPath virtualPath, Encoding fileEncoding) at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ParseFile(String physicalPath, VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ParseInternal() at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.Parse() at System.Web.Compilation.BaseTemplateBuildProvider.get_CodeCompilerType() at System.Web.Compilation.BuildProvider.GetCompilerTypeFromBuildProvider(BuildProvider buildProvider) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildProvidersCompiler.ProcessBuildProviders() at System.Web.Compilation.BuildProvidersCompiler.PerformBuild() at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.CompileWebFile(VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultInternal(VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultWithNoAssert(HttpContext context, VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.UI.TemplateControl.LoadControl(VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.UI.TemplateControl.LoadControl(String virtualPath) at umbraco.macro.loadUserControl(String fileName, Hashtable attributes, page umbPage)
My own code doesn't use the ToolboxBitmapAttribute, but third party products like Peter Blum's and Telerik's do.
Peter Blum replied with some useful hints:
* The "type initializer" concept probably needs some research, but I'm guessing that is an important clue. A quick web search of "type initializer" finds many situations it occurs for a variety of classes.
* The stack trace suggests that this is happening as ASP.NET is compiling your web form. The error is happening as the ASP.NET parser runs. Again this is external from my code (even creating or "type initializing" the attribute is not something my code does).
I have created a Data Source, Data Source Views and a Report Model. I then tried to deploy it and got the above error.I have seen a lot of possible answers via Google but none as yet have worked for me.I have Windows 7 and Microsoft SQL2008 full package.
