userControl breaks on 404 page?

We have a bunch of usercontrols we are using on our site. One of them calls
functions in a compiled DLL (is that a 'resource' in VS.net terminology?)

The pages that contains all of these controls work just fine. We've made a
new page, error.aspx that we're going to use for our custom 404 page. If we
load/navigate directly to this page, no problem. If we get to this page via
IIS redirect (for page not found) the one control that depends on this
external DLL breaks. I think the issue has to do with it wanting to grab a
querystring/URL. But I'm not sure exactly, WHAT to look for. It appears that
the redirect process 'breaks' the url and the function can't 'see' it?

Does that sound familiar, or am I just making stuff up here? ;o)

Worse case scenario, we'll just put in an if page=error then ignore, but I
thought I'd check to see if there are any common issues with redirected
pages via .net and specific functions.

Hi Darrel:

Can you define "breaks"? Is there an exception message?

I think it was one of the genric 'instance of object not...' type of errors.
It wasn't specific at all.

This isn't actually a page I was working on but a co-developer. They just
gave up and wrote the page by hand instead of using the control, but I was
wondering if there was a common issue with error pages.

A bit of research indicates that a 404 error page isn't handled the same
way, but it's not very clear and doesn't really explain the issue we were
having.

Apologies for the vagueness of the question. ;o)

I can't seem to figure out how to get a reference to a UserControl in the code-behind for the page that contains the control.

Note that I'm not creating the UserControl prgrammatically via...

The problem is that the webcontrols get created on the OnLoad event of the usercontrol and the event handlers are assigned at the same time.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
