Hello Bharat,

Based on the supplied information, it is hard to determine what is causing this error. It will be very helpful if you could send us small runnable application which demonstrates the described issue. We will test it locally and advise you further.

sorry but this issue is something which is coming randomly..there is no specific steps to reproduce it..and it comes ones in last 4-5 days which my manager reported me.
the application is too big to send and there is no specific page or dll which i think causing this problem.
also i saw on terelik forums and this issue was with others users also but there is no answer for this.

please help.

Hello Bharat,

Can you please provide a bit more information about your scenario and implementation? Which controls are used, what is the exact error you are getting and when?

I'm having the same issue.. happens ramdomly can't pinpoint it for now

[Flores]

I'm working with a IIS cluster.. and probably this is the problem:

The machine keys in the cluster must be the same.

Hi Flores,

Can you tell us if this blog post helped you to solve the problem?

Best wishes,

[Flores]

Yes, it did.

Turned out that that at server level the machine key was set, but because the default .NET version was 2.0 this did not affect the 4.0 site that I was using.

Setting the machine key the same at both nodes at site level solved the problem.

Hi Flores,

I am glad everything is fine. Please do not hesitate to let us know if you have further questions.

Hi Flores
Can you explain a bit further on what you meant by setting the machine key to be the same at both nodes? My understanding of .net machine.config is shaky. Can you explain exactly what you did to solve the issue?
for eg. I have my application machine key set in my root web.config.
in the Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG path there are multiple .config files... should we be setting our machine key to match that?
Any help you can give would be apprectiated. I am being bombarded with webresource.axd errors.

It could only be a problem if you are using a load balancing cluster, are you using multiple nodes?

If so, you want the machine key to be the same on all the machines in the cluster. It does not matter if you do that in the web.config or the machine.config
