web.config <handlers>

**willids** · willids, January 13th, 2010 03:40 AM

we are using the ajax on the editNews page, we have someone from a server support company looking a the server to make sure nothing is loocked/unlocked in iis which could cause this error.

thanks

Look for xhtmlConformance in you web.config. If you find it and its value is legacy, change it to transitional.

Server has been looked at and according to the server support guy iis7 is running fine and how it should be, but now I am getting -

Code:

XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: http://www.willid.co.uk/default.aspx
Line Number 1, Column 1:

**jmurrayhead** · jmurrayhead, January 14th, 2010 04:56 PM

Are you browsing your site via Firefox? Does the page you're calling have any markup on it or is it just a blank .aspx page calling a .vb or .cs file? If it's just a blank page, try adding the following to it:

Code:

<html>
<body></body>
</html>

To my knowledge, Firefox requires the above at a minimum.

**willids** · willids, January 15th, 2010 09:06 AM

I have created a new site with Visual Web Dev and put some html in it (this is a test) and still having to comment out the <handlers>, if I don't then I now get

Code:

XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: http://www.DomainName.co.uk/default.aspx
Line Number 1, Column 1:
^

**jmurrayhead** · jmurrayhead, January 17th, 2010 04:32 PM

Have you tried running this through the debugger or putting some code in the Global.asax's Application_Error event to email you the error?

**willids** · willids, January 17th, 2010 04:43 PM

working on that now so hopefully it will be sorted shortly.

**willids** · willids, January 21st, 2010 07:31 AM

This is now sorted it was the config files on the server overridemode was being set to Deny and had nothing to do with the coding which the server company said it was. Looks like they did not configure the server correctly

**jmurrayhead** · jmurrayhead, January 21st, 2010 08:04 AM

Wow, and companies like that always 'know' it's never anything they did wrong. lol glad you got this sorted
