Broken Image Link in SharePoint web part

[Brian Farnhill]

 

 

Hi there,

I am currently building a proof of concept application for a client  and I'm trying to integrate the RadCaptcha control into a webpart I am creating for a MOSS 2007 web site, and I'm having a problem with it, being that the image for the CAPTCHA is always broken.

I have added the following to my web.config file:

<httpHandlers>
<add path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource, Version=2009.3.1314.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4" verb="*" validate="false" />
</httpHandlers>

and:

<handlers>
<add name="Telerik_Web_UI_WebResource_axd"  verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd"  type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource, Version=2009.3.1314.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4" />
</handlers>

The reason I am fully qualifying the assembly name is because I am putting the Telerik DLL's in the GAC (both Telerik.Web.UI and Telerik.Web.Design - I have checked the version numbers and they match)

I am creating the RadCaptcha control in code like this:

protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
    // ...

    RadCaptcha captcha = new RadCaptcha();
    Controls.Add(captcha);

    // ...
}

Any ideas why it isn't creatng the image for me? Help is appreciated

Further to the above, here is the error I have found that I am getting when the images are trying to load:

Configuration Error

Wow - just had a total brain snap moment there - had another look at my config line and realised I was typing it wrong :-)

Here is what should have been in the web.config for anyone who is interested

<httpHandlers>
<add path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource, Telerik.Web.UI, Version=2009.3.1314.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4" verb="*" validate="false" />
</httpHandlers>
<handlers>
<add name="Telerik_Web_UI_WebResource_axd"  verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd"  type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource, Telerik.Web.UI, Version=2009.3.1314.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4" />
</handlers>

I'll return to my village in shame now :-P
