State Management :: Validation Of Viewstate MAC Failed ...?
Mar 1, 2011
I have this 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.
my website was designed using dotnet 2003 worked under dotnet framework 1.0 the website was working fine then i had to upgrade the server to windows 2008 iis 7.0 so i configured the website to work under dotnet frame work 2.0 and the problem started to show up
i have tried many
enableViewStateMac="false" viewStateEncryptionMode="Never" enableEventValidation="false"
<machineKey validationKey="AutoGenerate,IsolateApps" validation="SHA1" decryption="Auto" decryptionKey="AutoGenerate,IsolateApps" />

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:
Source Error: The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of the below steps, then request the URL:
1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the top of the file that generated the error. Example:
<%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %> or:
2) Add the following section to the configuration file of your application:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Note that this second technique will cause all files within a given application to be compiled in debug mode. The first technique will cause only that particular file to be compiled in debug mode.
Important: Running applications in debug mode does incur a memory/performance overhead. You should make sure that an application has debugging disabled before deploying into production scenario.
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?

I deploy a simple web app,that works fine on my local system, on a remote server. The webform consist of a Menu control and a Listview control. If I browse the page and then leave it for like 20 minutes untouched and then try to select an entry from the menu I am getting the following error -

Before that I used to 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.So I added the following to the Pages tag in the web.config validateRequest="false" enableEventValidation="false" viewStateEncryptionMode ="Never"

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? See the code behing below:

I am having this problem with, it seems, Viewstate. This issue only occurs on certain machines, if I browse the website myself it works fine but if another user browses the pages they will lock up and timeout with the error "Viewstate verification failed. Reason: Viewstate was invalid." appering in the event log. Full error is as follows:

I read you can set matching keys in web.config files across a cluster.
But does it have to match across all the seperate apps on the cluster or is it in pairs?
IE... app1 on both clustered servers match or all apps on both servers have the same key?

I am writing a search results page for an airline booking system. I have Next/Previous buttons to view flights for the next or previous days. The way i have done my results grid is that i use an HtmlTable and dynamically add rows, cells and controls into the cells. This gives ultimate flexibility given that we can add any control type we want and have it function as it does everywhere else in the system. As you should be aware - i must recreate these controls each time the page is reloaded (in the page_init event) since asp does not handle this automatically.
When they go next/previous it refreshes the flight data and re-populates the grids. If they select a flight in the return grid (by checking the RadioButton), and go next on the FIRST leg grid, the selection of the return leg stays the same after the postback
- which is great. But the problem is, if the flight they selected on the return leg is no longer available it will not create the control and i get the following error;
"Microsoft JScript runtime error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: 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. For example, when adding controls dynamically, the controls added during a post-back must match the type and position of the controls added during the initial request."
Is there any way to tell asp.net that if you do not find the control anymore, simply ignore it rather than throwing the error? The nature of this design is that there potentioally WILL be a different layout after the page is posted back.

I have been getting this error a lot lately with some of my users, and I had a couple of concerns with view state and I have read so many articles but I am still lost..
1. I use masterpage on all the pages and I need viewstate for some of the pages but..
There is a page where a user will fill out the information and then submit this data to a cgi server, and it is where I get most of the Client Disconnected errors, what would happen if I disable viewstate when they click on that button?
Now when a user browses from one page to another, does the view state from the previous page get deleted? If not how would I delete it?
Does the master page have its own viewstate? Would I be able to make sure none of items on my master page are using the viewstate?

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?

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">

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.

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).

Sutring the website that im building, I opened up a page and left it open for about 40 minutes.
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 :
[code]...
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?

Anyone has experence with "Validation of viewstate MAC failed" issue while using Google Chrome? We have a customer having specific issue with Chrome. It's the strangest thing. In IE and Firefox, the problem does not exist, but once Google Chrome is used instead, he gets the error.
*note, we already have <pages
