Event ID 1309 ASP.NET An unhandled exception has occurred

Guys thanks for responding

Not sure where to start here.

As I stated above all my code was working great on my windows 2003 IIS 6 platform this all started after moving to Windows 2012 IIS 8.5

I have many ASP pages on this site the error message does not point to the page.

Can you guys test out my site? www.tomsmp3.com

Thanks

Big Monty

Will do may take some time  will post code later

Thanks guys

The & issue may have been my sql database which had tons of unwanted characters embedded in the rows.

After I cleaned up the database my other issue json not working corrected itself.

I am closing this and will monitor this over the next few days to see if it reappears then we can revisit this .

Thanks..

Big Monty

It is back.  Just got a user from the outside of my network and I got the 1309 error.

Problem is the message does not tell you which page they were using

I tested the entire site internally and did not have one error.

Thoughts on how to proceed

Big Monty

It only happens randomly

I will start reviewing all the code

I am currently working on one minor problem with a page my onclick refreshimage not working

If you have time can you check it out?

Thanks

Big Monty

Just posted a new one on this issue can you please take a look  Thanks Tom

http://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28688012/ASP-NET-4-0-30319-0-Event-Id-1309.html

Yesterday I posted this question and closed it out but it reappeared again today so I would like to reopen this

Same error is occurring randomly

It was suggested that I change my code to server.htmlencode(string)

 <%
  response.write(Server.HTMLEncode("The image tag: <img>"))
  %>



 So I went thru all the pages that are on this site a total of 12.

 The only two that build a url are below

 I have tested the site internally from several computers and externally via my iphone and I can not recreate this error.

 I am not sure what is causing the error I need a few more people to test remotely all I know is in the error message it is an external ip address that the problem occurs

They all are working fine this is something new on IIS 8.5 causing this error

 I am new to IIS 8.5 so not sure where to look

 The site does searches against a sql 2008 database

 I can post the other pages if needed.

my problem is as you can see in the code the line  number does not match  how does this count?
How can I find what is wrong if the line numbers do not match
Am I missing something here?

I am new to this debugger

Once I figure out how to do this I can review each page

I reduced the number of output from 1000 to 100 for faster results.

Yes need to brush up on html code

Thanks

I tried adding </font>   but it does not work page would not display

Tried adding to bottom of code but I get mismatched end tag

where can I put the code?

sounds good I used some CSS on this site but not all of the pages

I am using F12 IE debugger to see these messages using IE 11
Do not need to do a view source when you use the debugger tool the source is displayed in the debugger tab makes it very easy to track issues.

Just wish I knew how to fix some of these.

Attached is the view source

See can see the same by going to www.tomsmp3.com  hit f12 using IE then click on genre search button


Thanks

You can go to the site and see the errors for better explanation


Any help on these last three would be greatly appreciated.

Still monitoring this .

Guys

I fixed number 1 above.  changed from using form to script code is cleaner.

Take a look if you can.

Now on to number 3

Hope you guys can help me with number one

Late night.

My last posting still struggling with

And the Main Page got it down to 1 error in the code the others are twitter and facebook code.

The only error I can see besides the FB and twitter code is this one

music.txt

Dan

Thanks for the heads up

Yesterday I was trying to fix things and I changed authentication settings on the site in IIS 8.5 I went into the Authentication and enabled Windows Authentication HTTP 401 Challenge

I believe that is the reason for the 401 error?

I just disabled it an only have Anonymous Authentication Enabled

I did a iisreset /noforce

but still getting the 401 error

Thoughts?

I did fix all the above code except for 2 pages the main page and music3
Disclaimer an the others where clean

CSS is the way to go in the future in true.


Any thoughts on the 401 error


Thanks

Dan/Josh

Got the 401 error resolved.  Had to rebuild the entire site under IIS 8.5

Changing the authentication method  really messes things up

Now struggling with WebDAV again

If you guys have time check the site out again

I believe only music.asp and music3.asp have one error left in each.

music.asp in the main page I will look into using css to rebuild that page after we get all the errors removed.

Thanks

Josh

Thanks

As soon as I get WebDAV working again I will look at the missing fonts

music4.asp is the search by genre on the main page that one is clean

The one that has a problem still is music3.asp

Only when you select playlist or click on the song from the page you get one error in debugger


Will work on the css in the next part of this project. I like the CSS code

Josh

Just did that's the problem when rebuilding the site you always forget something.

Still getting 404 when I click on a song

thoughts?

Josh
 two virtual paths
 1. /MP3
2.  /Playlist


I created them from memory  in music3.asp it looks the same can you check?

Josh

Got it

Had a bad path in the virtual directory

You should now be able to continue with music3.asp by clicking on playlist and the song

Sorry about that

Josh

No problem I am going out for awhile too need to take a break from this too.

As soon as I get the WebDAV problem resolved then I can finish with this too.

Thanks for you help

Guys

Just got another 1309 error user host was 91.121.169.194   one of yours?

Some one in France
 Wish I knew what they are trying to cause this error

I went thru every function on my site and have not created this error.

WE are down to just the main page and music3.asp

I am guessing they are entering a bad character in the search box just a guess

No where In the code I find &amp

WE need to re look at this

Thanks

Dan

sounds good

is there an easier way to view the log files?

Dan

I got another 1309 tonight

checked the log file and saw nothing that would indicate an error condition. Unless I am looking in the wrong place.

But I did more research and found this

http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian/mswinswdev/ms_vbnet_server_error_potentially_dangerous.htm

Was hoping you or Josh could help me on this one.

Thanks

Thanks

My guess is it is from the user

I was still working on the main page I opened another problem for that code

Ok

what do I put in that text file  just blank?

How do I block the bot?

Never had to do this new to this stuff

Dan

Great thanks

Do I need to reset iis?   iisreset /noforce   ????

I placed it in the sites root folder

Dan great

Will keep eye on the event log over the next few days to see if we get any other 1309


Thanks

Dan

Update

Today I received a 1309 event I used logparser to look at the Web log for the site had it convert the time stamps which made it very easy to review.

When I got to the time frame I saw the user was accessing a page that is not in production

After some research I found files in the site folder that did not need to be there so I removed them

But that was not the user who caused the error  &amp

In the log I do not see any entries from the user with the same ip address on which page they was on

When I look at the log with my ip address I see all the pages I access

I can not image what they are doing to cause this error

I am sure they are trying to do something

Any thoughts

Thanks
