Effects of changing the httphandler for "Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" to "Telerik.Web.UI.WebResourceSession"

[p]

All,

To support RadCaptCha  in a web farm environment, i have to

• Set the ImageStorageLocation property to Session;
• Configure the httpHandler in the following way:

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <httpHandlers>
            <add path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResourceSession" verb="*" validate="false" />
        </httpHandlers>
    </system.web>
    <system.webServer>
        <handlers>
            <add name="Telerik_Web_UI_WebResource_axd" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResourceSession" />
        </handlers>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

as per http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/captcha/rad-captcha-image-not-showing.aspx

How does this web config change affect the other telerik controls?

TIA

Hi TIA,

The only difference between Telerik.Web.UI.WebResourceSession and Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource is the fact that the first implements the System.Web.SessionState.IRequiresSessionState, which enables the RadCaptcha to store the CaptchaImage in the Session. In fact WebResourceSession inherits WebResource.
This being said you should not have problems with the other telerik controls that use this HttpHandler.
