HttpModule Events not firing in ASP.NET 2.0

Sep 10, 2007 08:03 PM|LINK

Hello, Please help me find why this HttpModule is not firing at all

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Data;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Web;


namespace MyModules
{
	public class TestHttpModule : IHttpModule
	{
		public void Init(System.Web.HttpApplication Application)
		{
			Application.Error += new System.EventHandler(OnError);
}


		public void Dispose()
		{
		}


		protected virtual void OnError(object sender, EventArgs args)
		{
			HttpApplication app = (HttpApplication)sender;
			

			app.Server.GetLastError();
			app.Response.Write("An error");
			app.Context.ClearError();
			app.Response.End();
		}
	}
}

I placed the above class in the App_Code folder. In the web.config file, I useed this:

</httpModules>

Any help please? In the Default.aspx page I am writing "throw new ApplicationError("..")" and I see that the HttpModule is not firing any event!

Thanks

Try specifying the following....
<httpModules>
<add name="TestHttpModule" type="MyModules.TestHttpModule, MyModules" />

</httpModules>

But I am placing the code in App_Code and not in a seperate assembly to specify MyModules!

Anyone please?

Thanks

This is driving me crazy!

I downloaded a sample code for a video on the www.asp.net website that talks about HttpModule! It works fine, when I move the same HttpModule to my application, the module never runs!! Is there a special workaround we should do to make an HttpModule works on a website under .NET 3.0\5 on VS 2008 Beta 2 with Vista/IIS 7?

Thanks

This is related to IIS 7 and Integrated Mode related to Application pool. Have a look at this post of mine, I had same thing and I did solve it!!

Holy crap this fixed my issue. Same as the unlucky soul above I was scratching my head at this. The module worked perfectly in "Cassini" the buit in webdev server in Visual Studio but no go on a production IIS 7.0.

Basically registered the module in both places in the web config. both the <httpModules> section and the <modules> section.

This was very frustrating not to mention that this was the only place I could find anything regarding the issue.

Stuff like this is really annoying.

So Bilal a toast to you, or in this case let's just go with the bottle....I need it right about now whew!
