Im getting sporadic NullReferenceExceptions when RadAsyncUpload requests Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd.
I have getting error reports from some users of the site that they where not able to use the upload function. They get a javascript error... I have not been able to reproduce this but i am curious if this error could have anything to do with it.
Here is the trace from event log:

Hello,
I've inspected the stack trace provide, but frankly we haven't seen such problem before.The key aspect of the problem is the fact that this error is only reproduced with certain users and not all of them. Could you please elaborate a bit more on what exactly is the nature of your website and whether there is anything specific with the RadAsyncUpload. Also do you use multithreading since such error might occur if concurrent threads are trying to access the HttpContext object.

The user goes through a registration process in which they have the option to upload a document/file. They click a "next" button on which i save the data entered including the document to session. They then see a confirmation page and click register after which i save the stuff to DB.
I'm not running any multithreading, more then the web server itself in w3wp process.
Running on IIS 6 with radcompression if this could make any difference.

Hello John,
There doesn't seem to be an obvious problem in the scenario that you've described. Unfortunately there's nothing we can do at this point without a sample project or a live Url reproducing the issue, that we can test locally.
Please excuse us for any inconvenience caused.

The users that had problems uploading had nothing to do with the "NullReferenceException".
There where two issues:
/John
There where two issues:
- Validation failed for no apparent reason. The reason behind this was because they tried to upload a file that was open on the desktop. It only failed in the Silverlight module (IE).
Solution: Disable the silverlight module. - Upload "stalls", only the blinking yellow dot shows. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpkVOsTqCNU&feature
Seems to be a problem with the flash module (IE). I have the site under Anonymous authentication:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/async-upload/solution-upload-fails-or-login-prompt-appears-when- using-forms-windows-authentication. I don't know why this happens.I would be glad to help you replicate this.
Solution: Disable the flash module.
