Web Forms :: Get File Not Found Error For Favicon.ico?
Apr 14, 2010
I'm doing a tutorial for error logging. It seems to be pretty basic. Everything works the way it should but I get an error I did not expect in my error log. The error says file not found for favicon.ico. From what I've read this is a file for the icon that would appear in the address bar, to the left of the url. I don't understand why I'm getting this error. I have no code that does this or references this file. It happens when I run the app in chrome and in firefox. Does the browser automatically look for this file to display to the left of the url? Is it automatically looking for this file as part of it's normal routine when loading a page?
I have an image that was a gif and saved as a favicon.ico. I get an error when I build the project that says data is invalid for this. What does this mean? Is it corrupted?
I come from a VB environment. I'm looking at 2 different file extensions. If one doesn't exist look at the next. I was hoping to use the try/catch function. I can get it to find the first extension but not the second. Here is my the try/catch part of code:
The error dialog that pops up shows Connection Error in the title and a yellow exclamation point with File Not Found! I thought the FileNotFoundException would work(?).
if i browse for a text file and displays it in the text box and trying to save it as the name provided above i am getting the error as Directory Not Found Exception.
I'm working on a custom menu system in asp.net that populates a horizontal menu on the fly based on which menu item is selected from the website's main menu.This 2nd menu is populated from a custom XML file in the website's root directory.(See http://loganyoung.wordpress.com/2010/06/03/asp-net-horizontal-submenu-from-xml/ for details).At the time I'd written that post, it did work, but my development environment has changed and now I'm getting an error saying that the XML file can't be found.
OK, I was having some deployment issues on IIS 5.1, but at one point (right before the machine died) I was able to serve the files. I'm not certain what is lacking in my current case, but now I'm trying to deploy on IIS 6, and cannot get anything but "404 not found" errors. It's driving me nuts.
Just to be sure the site is working, because it isn't in the web root (virtual directory), I dumped a Web Forms website in there, and it worked just fine. I've tried setting up a wildcard in IIS by going to the properties of the site, and in the area under the file extension mappings, I clicked Insert to create a wildcard, assigning it to the aspnet_isapi.dll file. No dice. And yes, I remembered to uncheck the "Verify file exists" checkbox. Since this is IIS 6, I also made sure I had the Default.aspx page, with the code:
[Code]....
So all should be good. But it's not. I've combed over at least 6 websites and related links on getting MVC 2 to work on IIS 6, but nothing has worked so far. I cannot purchase the url rewritier mentioned in Steve Sanderson's blog, nor can I use the free version, since my application isn't the only web site running on this server. I can't use extensions for the pages, either. This is a crude hack I really don't want to deploy in a production application.
I have uploaded my website on ftp's httpdocs folder when i go to Default.aspx page it gives me File not found error, I had use publish website options and my project contains Default.aspx page as start page.All published project files are uploaded and still i am getting File not Found error.

I have a fairly big ASP.NET 3.5 website that refuses to open any page via the 'View in Browser' option of VS2010, i.e. the LocalHost facility does not work. All I get is a 'File Not Found' error.
Two other ASP.NET 4.0 sites (which are much simpler and do not have any SQL Server connections) can be viewed without any problem via the LocalHost service.
I am developing an application which is running fine on local machine. It is using webservices and jquery's ajax to call that service. It also has some asp hidden fields. I deploy it with visual studio. It is giving me error that the resource I am looking for is not found.
I have a web application and I'm using asp.net routing. When I publish it with the Only files needed to run this application selected it gives me an error when I'm loading any of the page "HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found."
I've just setup a new site on my IIS6 and I'm experiencing the following problem:
I can run normal HTML pages, but no .aspx files. If I call the aspx page directly I get a 404 - file not found - error message. This only happens with .aspx files.
I have a website where I need to add a Favicon.ico. The site is written using ASP.NET 3.5 Web Forms with Routing. The issue is that the Favicon link always returns a page not found error. This is because the Routing does not know where the link for Favicon.ico should go to so it returns the Not Found page.
I have tried to add a StopRoutingHandler for the the favicon but none of them seem to work. Below are the ones I have tried so far:
routes.Add(new Route("MasterPages/{favicon}.ico", new StopRoutingHandler())); routes.Add(new Route("{favicon}.ico", new StopRoutingHandler())); routes.Add(new Route("favicon.ico", new StopRoutingHandler())); routes.Add(new Route("favicon.ico/{*pathInfo}", new StopRoutingHandler()));
Does anyone know what I should be using? My favicon.ico links I have tried look like this:
I have added a favicon to my site but it will not appear. I have the following two lines in the master page markup:
[Code]....
When the first page that uses the master page is rendered in the browser, these links are:
[Code]....
This is as I would expect yet the favicon does not appear. It appears fine on any basic html pages but simply won't on any pages that are based on the master page.
I have added an assembly(GAC DLL) in my web.config, but if someone does not installed my assembly, the web page can still work without error or successfully running in visual studio debugger?
My website was running perfectly without errors both on IIS and VS2013. Now today it stopped working in IIS 7 but working on VS2013. when i explore it using localhost/bsd then it gave this error :
XML Parsing Error: no element foundLocation: http://localhost/BSD/Builder.aspxLine Number 1, Column 1:
This error goes same for all page while accessing from IIS Localhost
As you can see in picture , I surfed internet and found these two :
I have a page that have a combobox and a button, when the user select something from the combobox and hit the Go button they are redirected to the page with the desired variable.
[Code]....
The problem appears when the page was not used from more than 20 minutes and the user select something from the comboBox and hit Go Button the receive a page indicating the Error 404.The only thing that I try is to use a javascript code that Refresh the page every 15 minutes but is not nice to see a page refreshing without a reason.If someone can have a way to identify what can be done in this problem, Its going to be a huge help.
I'm very, very new to the asp.net world and I was running through the create the movie db tutorial that is located in the learn asp.net mvc section of this website. Everything is fine until I create my home controller and edit it like on the site. Here is the first part of the code I have that has the error in it:
privateMoviesDBEntities _db = new MoviesDBEntities();
This is all on one line in visual studio but i get an error saying that the type or namespace 'MoviesDBEntities' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?). I have checked the spelling and I have the using MovieApp.Models; up above so if anyone has any insight that would be great.
I have also tried performing the manager contact sheet tutorial and get the same error in this section of the code.
