Postback To Control's Parent - Validation Of Viewstate MAC Failed / How To Fix It

Mar 25, 2011

I have a bit of javascript that presents a modal to the user with the rest of the page "grayed out." Pretty common these days. The modal allows you to specify a URL which then uses AJAX to serve and display. What I need is that when the control posts back, it posts back to the parent page, not the modal page. To attempt this, I used javascript to alter the target of the modal page's form element to the parent page's URL. When I try this I get the following error:

Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.

This is done locally and as of now, the app will never be on a cluster. I think this has to do with the validation process and .NET doesn't like that I've changed the target. Anyone know a way around this? I really need this to work how I described.

C# - Validation Of ViewState MAC Failed?

Nov 9, 2010

After changing the Master Page in ASP.NET MVC 1.0 application, I keep getting this familiar error when I try a postback without filling in the mandatory form elements which are validated by the server:

"Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster."

The new page refers to a lot of jQuery code with lightboxes, superfish etc. Could that be a problem while doing a postback?

If I revert back to the original master, the error disappears and I'm able to validate form fields. Both masters are located in the same path.

After a little debugging, I've realized that a directive in the master page:

<% Html.RenderAction("menu", "nav"); %>

is creating the problem. The directive asks the "menu" action of the controller "nav" to inject a partial view Menu.ascx. If I delete this line from the new master page, everything works OK. My app's left bar navigation relies on this directive to work properly. Is there any way I can get around this?

What is strange is that on the begining the form is ok but after a while I started to get this error.And why at the start everything was ok and after a while I started to get this error?

State Management :: Failed To Load Viewstate. The Control Tree Into Which Viewstate Is Being Loaded Must Match ?

Oct 9, 2010

Now here is the weird thing. First i am running it locally on the built in vs2008 web server.I load my control in fine, do a postback from a linkbutton, locally on my machine it all works fine, no issue.However when it goes onto my host, it falls over with the message:

Failed to load viewstate. The control tree into which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree that was used to save viewstate during the previous request.Now i also load controls dynamically and use postbacks and things in the admin area of the site...and that works fine, however my front end just keeps failing?

Validation Of Viewstate MAC Failed - How To Avoid It

Jan 25, 2010

I know this is a very common problem and a quick search in google offers a lot of solutions. However I could only find one person that came across it in the same way I am and no-one answered their question.

The scenario which causes this is if the page has been left dormant for a period of time and then a button is pressed which runs some sort of command. This might be pressing the logout button or trying to submit a contact form after having walked away at some point and then returning and hitting Send.

I do not have posts or actions in my form, it looks like this: <form id="form1" runat="server">

I have also added the following line to my web.config: <pages enableEventValidation="false" iewStateEncryptionMode="Never">

VS 2005 Validation Of Viewstate MAC Failed - How To Fix It

Jul 28, 2010

I have a web page that shows all contacts and its running fine.

When user does not activity for some time and after that user clicks the button to download records, its shows message:

Validation of viewstate MAC failed

I am not getting where this problem arise and what to do to solve.

One imp thing, after being inactive for some time when I log out and then log in then its works fine.

I assume it can be session timeout problem, but don't know how to deal with it.

this avoids a MAC error

Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.

I add this to webconfig and it works

<pages validateRequest="false" enableEventValidation="false" viewStateEncryptionMode="Never" enableViewStateMac="false">

why does it work and what an earth is this error as it makes no sense to me. it is to do with sessions.

Error - Validation Of Viewstate MAC Failed

Jul 14, 2011

I don't know what is causing this. The weird thing is, eventually, it goes away (as in, i get to see the web application form), BUT my web app does not work properly. I have image buttons that are not showing the image that I set at imageButton.ImageUrl. It works fine when I run it on my local machine (IIS), but when I try it on one of those free hosting sites, it will go as far as showing the interface (which has the image buttons), but when I click, it suppose to be set with an image.

btw, the first aspx page contains a ListView control, then after clicking on a button in that page, it goes to another page that contains a bunch of imagebuttons and an ajax timer control. I get the " Validation of viewstate MAC failed" error AFTER clicking on the button (in the ListView page).

Next, i was trying to change selection in a DDL and got this error messag : Validation of viewstate MAC failed.

I read a bit abou the problem, still can't figure out why it happens, but it was written that a good workaround is :

and third : I've thought about another solution. If the problem occurred while waiting, perhaps force refresh after certain amount of minutes of user doing nothing with the page. I think that I can perform the refresh using response.redirect, but what about the "WAITING "CERTAIN AMOUNT IF MINUTES OF USER DOING NOTHING WITH THE PAGE" part?

In our control environment, we've started, somewhat intermittently, getting:

Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.

on our website.It also suggests:

We already have compilation debug as true. We have upgraded our website to ASP.NET 4.0, although our middle tier components are still at 3.5. As we do in out production machine configs (which are using ASP.NET 3.5) we have

<section type="System.Web.Configuration.MachineKeySection, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=abcabc123123" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication"/>

we also have one in the new .NET 4.0 machine.config:

<section type="System.Web.Configuration.MachineKeySection, System.Web, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=abcabc123123" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication" />

This control environment is not in a server farm. Why is it suggesting that I turn on debug, when it's already on. Why isn't it showing me my source code?

Here is the scenario, let's say I have a url

http://mysite.com/admin/login.aspx instead typing the whole url in address, user can type either
http://mysite.com/admin/ or http://mysite.com/admin which all end up at http://mysite.com/admin/login.aspx. When a user type http://mysite.com/admin and entered correct login info, and press login button it gets the error above. How can I resolve this? Tried setting EnableValidateRequest to false and EnableViewstateMac to false also even I do not want to use this approach and still does not work.

I know this question has been asked million times but I think my situation is different here.I am using .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, there is no form action on the page and it's not happening when I try to submit the form quickly. I am not on a web farm either.I have a page with two GridViews. One Gridview acts as a master gridview and second as detail gridview. First Gridview has autogenerate select button and clicking select would bring related records in detail gridview at the bottom. I have a refresh Link button at the top. Everything works fine. I click refresh button and it works fine too.Ok when problem start happening when I leave the page idle for like 10 minutes or so and then I click Refresh button only then I get this "Validation of Viewstate MAC failed" error.
