Veru odd behavior of HTTPModule

(I've asked this on the C# newsgroup; I'm hoping someone over here might
have an idea.)

We have a C# application running under ASP.NET. It wasn't written using any
VS.NET magic; all of the call the System.Web are made explicitly. It uses
..NET 1.1; no other version of the framework is present on the machine.
There are two web.config files: the one at the top level specifies an
HttpModule, one in a subdirectory specifies an HttpHandler.

On some machines only, we see this odd behavior, and only after the app has
been running for some (variable) period of time: the HttpModule stops being
called. All requests for the vdir are still processed by ASP.NET, and URLs
including the subdirectory are still processed by its HttpHandler, but no
requests are processed by the HttpModule. Restarting IIS always fixes the
problem (temporarily).

First, has anyone seen anything like this. or has any ideas what might be
causing it?

Second, does anyone have ideas about how to debug it? We haven't found any
tracing to turn on, or any way to inquire of IIS/ASP.Net what it thinks the
state of the vdir or module is.

I'm trying to create a context object similar to the HttpContext that could be used by business objects independent of the origin or the call (ASP.NET or standalone). So I started out by using ThreadStatic variables to maintain state for the current request but soon found out that this doesn't work in ASP.NET since one request can run on more than one thread. I then discovered an article...

What I'm trying to do is Create an ASP.Net app that has both Windows-authenticated users and Anonymous users. The idea is this: When authenticated users attempt to access the site, their credentials are passed to the Request, and I use the DOMAIN\USER value via the AUTH_USER server variable to access their accounts. These people would never have to log in to the app, only their machines on the network. When anonymous users attempt to...

I have written an httpModule for use in our test environment. If a user goes to http://testserver/SomeApplication/MyPage.aspx it will resolve to the latest version of that application deployed: http://testserver/SomeApplication.1.0.10.0/MyPage.aspx, for instance. Problem is, the httpModule doesn't get called because http://testserver/SomeApplication doesn't exist. I assume this is because IIS is spitting it back, but I am not sure. ...

Folks, I develop a HttpModule and it works correct, but one problem is occurs. After I register the httpmodule in the web.config, my pages (not testing http://localhost/site but http://my_machine_name/site) show problems when refresh the page. I guess some kind of javascript problems with the postback methods. Someone has any idea how can i fix it? Thanks

I have earlier used an HttpModule that did URL rewrites on the BeginRequest event. Now I am trying to use the same module in a different application on a new and upgraded machine (winxp sp2). The Module is registered via Web.config. The registration is OK. When asking for an existing .aspx page, the eventhandler is called as it should. HOWEVER - if the request url is for a non-existant file, I get a 404 - file

Hi There! Is it possible to use HttpModule to replace the built-in ASP.NET Session object? I want to write a HttpModule that will handle storing and retrieving of session values from an external database. For example, when a page set values to Session object such as Session("somevar")=1 then I want my HttpModule to get notified and store the value into the external database. The same for "getting" the variable, I want my own...

Hi there, I know there is pool of HttpApplications, and for each request coming in, HttpRuntime will dedicate one from pool to serve the request. My questions are : 1. since HttpModule is plug into the process, does each instance of HttpApplication keep its own set of HttpModule instance or HttpModules are shared among all HttpApplication instances? 2. In case of HttpApplication keep its own set of HttpModule, does the HttpModule...

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,...
