Update:
IIS is7.5, AppPool is Integrated.
I have tried below, none of them works:
1) Add it only to system.web\httpHanders. Changed AppPool to classic, still got hidden error.
2) Add it only to system.webServer\handlers. Integrated mode,still got hidden error.
3) Add both to both element. Integrated mode, still got hidden error.

Hi Kingofwebguru,
According to your description, when you use reportviewer control, you got the error message: The Report Viewer Web Control HTTP Handler has not been registered in the application's web.config file.
To troubleshoot the problem, please refer to the following steps:
Click Start, click Run, then type InetMgr.exe and click OK.
Click plus sign next to server name to expand it.
Click Application Pools in left pane.
In Application Pools list, click DefaultAppPool.
In the Actions pane, in Edit Application Pool section, click Edit Settings to check the Pipeline mode.
Configuration settings for the HTTP handlers are specified in the system.web/httpHandlers element and the system.webServer/handlers element. of your application Web.config file. The handler specified in system.web/httpHandler is used by Internet Information
Services (IIS) 6.0 or IIS 7.0 in Classic mode, whereas the handler specified in system.webServer/handlers is used by IIS 7.0 in Integrated mode. To use IIS 7.0 in Integrated mode, you must remove the HTTP handler in system.web/httpHandlers. Otherwise, IIS
will not run the application, but will display an error message instead.
For more information about Web.config Settings for ReportViewer, please refer to the following document:

  • Pages that use flash freeze up in mavericks.

    When viewing a page that uses a flash plug-in, the page will freeze after a few seconds of inactivity by me. It will start again if I touch my mouse or track pad over the area, but that's no solution. That's terrible.
    I thought maybe it was a new setting, and I unchecked the option to stop plug-ins to save power when possible, but that didn't do anything.
    This isn't ruining my life or anything. I'm just playing little flash games like Adventure Quest, and zOMG, but it's irritating.
    Thank you for reading.

  • Problem updating pages that use .dwt file

    So i have 45 files that all use the same .dwt file.  Usually when I make a change to the template and go file > save it asks me if i want to update all pages that use that specific .dwf file.  For some reason it doesn't show the pages that do.  Although if I go to the specific page for example contact.html and do a Modify > Templates > Apply template to page, it applys the changes, and then once i make a change to the .dwt file and do the File > Save, contact.html now appears in the section of files to be updated.  I do not want to go thru every page and manually apply the template does anyone have any information that could help me out? thanks

    I do not want to go thru every page and manually apply the template does anyone have any information that could help me out?
    However, that would work.
    It sounds like your site cache has become corrupted.  Try the following -
    1.  Open DW's Site manager, select the site name, and click on EXPORT (make sure you opt to export the FULL site defintion including FTP info)
    2.  Export the site definition to a KNOWN location on your hard drive
    3.  With the site name still selected in Site manager, click REMOVE to remove that site from your list of definitions
    4.  Import the site definition you just exported - that should solve the updating problem
    Does this heal things for you?

  • Lost prompt to update pages that use template..

    Yes I know I should not use templates but I do on very small sites with under 10 pages. When making adjustments to the templates I used to get a prompt asking me if I want to update pages that use that template, but I no longer get that. I must have changed something but I am wondering how I can change it back. I can manually update but I always forget and I do not wantto go that route....anyone know how I can get that prompt back to update pages that use template? Thanks much!

    Well you have suggested SSI's before instead Murray....
    No, I've suggested SSI's instead of Library items, or a combination of SSI's and a template instead of nested templates, but I've never suggested using SSI's instead of templates, although it is a workable solution.
    I dont think it matters what I have in the code. It used to prompt me whenever I changed ANYTHING and had to save.
    I do.  However, try this simple test -
    1.  Create a new, blank HTML file.
    2.  Save it with FILE | Save as Template... (verify that the page is saved in the "Templates" folder)
    3.  Spawn a new child page from this template with FILE | New > Page from Template.
    4.  Save this page with any name you prefer.
    5.  Return to the template page and change the title from Untitled document to "Whatever".  Save it.  Are you prompted?  You should be.
    If you are not prompted then there is something systemically wrong with your DW installation.

  • Error processing a page when using AJAX

    hi apex forum.
    I need your help with a problem that presents me with an application in apex 4.2.
    I have developed a html screen, in which I have created a table that contains a detailed items and on which the user can enter some values. these data that user enters, I calculate a total at the end of the page. To view the current total of the entries , the user presses a button that uses AJAX (to avoid having to refresh the whole page)  to calculate totals and at the same time, i call an AJAX process to add each record to an apex_collection , until here everything perfect.
    The problem is that when I want to save the information to pass it from apex_collection to the database (by pressing a button and make the official insert), I must first have to refresh the page, if not do it this way, Apex generate an Error Message.
    it's important to say that error does not apper, if before pressing the button, i first refresh the page.  Any suggestions??
    I think I should use some internally command to synchronize or update the page.... any suggestions are welcome.,
    thanks in advance,

    Soooo...
    What is the error you are seeing?
    Is the multi-row process still there? What exactly happens on submit (computations, validations, processes)?
    Have you tried to run with debug enabled and were you able to see where the error originates?

  • JSP on BEA  Weblogic: random error when loading a jsp page that uses a Bean

    Hi!
    I wrote a simple jsp page that stores a String in a JavaBean, and then forwards to another jsp page to display that String. The jsp pages are deployed on a BEA Weblogic 6 Server, but I get a weird behaviour when loading the page into my browser. Usually I get an error message:
    /Response.jsp(9): class 'query.jsp.QueryBean' could not be loaded
    probably occurred due to an error in /Query.jsp line 9:
    <jsp:useBean id = "queryBean" scope = "request" class = "query.jsp.QueryBean" />
    But the funny thing is that after reloading the page a few times it eventually works. The bahaviour seems to be totally random - sometimes it works, sometimes it claims not finding the JavaBean class.
    Anyone experienced something similar?
    Thank you very much,
    Charlie

    Is QueryBean.class located under '<appname>/Web_inf/query/jsp/'?
    If it is please try changing the package name to something else like com.myclass or something like that.

  • Have you noticed the newest version 3.6.23 crashes frequently? Mine does it a few times a day on web pages that used to work fine before the upgrade.

    Since the last Firefox update was installed on my system, Firefox crashes several times a day on websites that used to be no problem. I have five crash report id's from the last two days (I usually don't send the report). Do you want all of them?
    I'm running Firefox 3.6.23
    I'm running MacOS X version 10.5.8, on 1.5ghz powerPC G4
    with 2gb memory and over 100gig still available on my 150gig hard drive.
    I checked for updates - there are no new updates.
    I tried sending feedback, but the feedback page said I had to be running the latest version of firefox. So I clicked on "latest version of Firefox", and got "Unfortunately the latest version of Firefox isn't compatible with your computer's operating system"
    The "learn more" link took me to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/ which says that OS 10.5 is supported.
    So - how do I get back to my previous version of Firefox so it doesn't keep crashing
    AND/OR
    Is there a fix coming to stop all the crashing
    AND/OR
    What do I do about Firefox versions on my computer?

    That can be a problem with a plugin, possibly Java.

  • Tracking pages that use color/inks?

    For those of you who produce projects in InDesign where some pages have color (or spot inks) available and others don't, what methods do you use to keep track?
    Anything clever?
    Generally speaking, for our tabloid newspaper that's imposed 4-up, we just track it on paper and hope that nobody screws up, and don't make any attempt to track it in InDesign. (For instance, a 16-page paper will probably have CMYK on pp. 1,8,9, and 16. And maybe also on pp. 3, 6, 11, 14.)
    I don't expect InDesign to do the math for me, but once we've decided, I wonder if we should try harder to track it. For instance, we could color pages in the pages panel, but that's fairly subtle. We could add some non-printing markers on the page and/or pasteboard, such as a big colored rectangle behind the entire page. We could do any of the above on master pages and have seperate master pages for the color pages.
    (Having seperate master pages for the colored pages seems like a good idea. It's not something we do right now, I guess, because there is no substantive difference in the recurring elements on pages that have color.)
    What do you do? Either in books or newspapers or other forms of print?
    What works and what doesn't work?
    What do you wish you could do?
    I worry that anything I've thought of so far is either too visible or too in-visible. Hmm, maybe a subtle transparency-like grid?

    Hmm, I didn't mean to anchor this question too firmly in newspaper-space. What drove the query was production of an 8x10 32-page magazine. Like Peter, we don't have too much trouble keeping track when its the newspaper, or perhaps it's because we have workflows that are well-adapted to figuring it out early. When we have fewer design constraints, suddenly it becomes more important.
    Peter wrote:
    For a book I did recently that was printed digital I ended up making a preflight profile that doesn't allow CMY or spot plates. It throws a warning with a link to a location, so I can just go through the list and make sure that I really intended to have a color page.
    Hmm. I guess checking after-the-fact is one way to go. I feel like we do a reasonable job with that, but I think we're 100% on catching any such screwups at the final proofing stage, it's just that we'd love to catch them earlier and have an easier way to tell in advance. Especially when our FPO photos tend to be color, which means b/w layouts will look color initially, so confusion is easy.
    Uwe:
    I notice you've provided a theoretical answer; while that's interesting, I would like to hear more about what you actually do.
    If working with single side pages one could imagine a script that constantly checks the layout window(s) for specific page names and would apply a greyscale color profile to "View/Proof setup/custom…" if on specified greyscale pages and a CMYK color profile if on specified color pages.
    I'm under the impression that greyscale color profiles don't work in InDesign.  Do you have a workaround for that?
    That's an interesting way to go. I don't normally work in Proof Colors mode I wonder if there's a performance penalty.
    And yeah, lack of facing pages support seems a definite problem...
    For facing pages we need a marker element that indicates "color page" or "greyscale page".
    It should be an object dependent on a specific page name and not part of a specific page or its content  (to be idependent when shifting pages around). I see no concept in InDesign to achieve this automatically in a constant way.
    I'm not too worried about how to have the page adornment be automatically implemented; I'm more interested in what kinds of page adornments people use and might be effective. At the end of my question, I suggested "Hmm, maybe a subtle transparency-like grid?" and I did run with that a little bit last night:
    I figured that a square grid too strongly screamed TRANSPARENCY so I'd try a hexagon grid. Unfortunately I don't think there's a great way to 2-color a grid of hexagons, and my first shading attempt doesn't work too well at the 10% opacity that is at. Still, I think it might be a workable way to go. But it might be too distracting. Not sure...
    Maybe a startup script that interacts when page names are changing or pages are shifted around is doable.
    I don't think it's too tough for a script in the idle loop to notice when pages are changing and to, say, change which master page is applied or pop up a dialog noting that. But I think I'm more interested in the UI for the designer once the pages are set, rather than the interface for changing the adornments. Because if I can't come up with a useful adornment, the rest doesn't matter.

  • Error updating a datablock that uses a view

    I have a view that is using a UNION ALL between two tables. I have written the instead of trigger properly and I have no problem updating, inserting or deleting thru the view in Oracle.
    The problem is that forms will query the view fine, but will not allow me to update any field associated with the datablock. I'm getting the following error message:
    "FRM-40501: ORACLE error: unable to reserve record for update or delete"
    and when I do display error, I get the following message:
    "ORA-02014: cannot select FOR UPDATE from view with DISTINCT, GROUP BY, etc."
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

    Well I only did the instead of trigger thing once.. But Ill stick my neck out anyway...
    Since you have instead of triggers you may be able to get away with just putting a "null;" in the on-lock trigger or write your own locking code in the on-lock trigger. Search for locking in this forum for examples.
    I think using the instead of triggers may override the need to specifically put insert, update, and delete statements in on-update, on-delete, on-insert form triggers.
    Basically with instead of triggers the form will try to do its normal processing and issue select, insert, update, and delete statements on the view, which usually causes headaches, but the instead of triggers on the view will take over do the DML upon other appropriate tables making everybody happy. I think the locking is your issue.
    Now if you werent using instead of triggers you would have to put update, insert, delete statements in the on-insert, on-update, on-delete triggers.
    I think.. :)

  • Error message on page loading using SAFARI

    I need to understand this message that appears on the bottom of a page from sites loaded. I dont remember having this experience before - the message goes like this ' Loading "http....."...completed 74 of 89items' and it just stays there! or some time its more annoying when the message says competed 123 of 234 items and when the 123 number progresses to say 126 the 234 items remaining increases to a higher number, and so on until the loading page just freezes!!
    At times the page appears on screen but the message at the bottom have an additional message within brackets like (2 errors).
    Help much appreciated.

    Hi C:
    We were all "green" at one point in time!
    Go to the menu bar when you are in the finder (not Safari). Click on "go" and then "home" (the little house). A finder window will open. Click on library. Click on preferences. In that list you will find the preference file (com.apple.safari.plist). Move that file to the trash and then restart the computer. Preference files sometimes (rare, but it happens) become corrupted. When one is missing, OS X creates one with default preferences.

  • I cannot open PDF documents correctly. I get an error on the page that says there is an error on the document. Neither Adobe Acrobat or Reader work.

    I cannot open pdf files that are maps correctly . Some of the data layers are missing. I get a warning message that there is an error in the document and I should contact the originator. I have both Adobe Acrobat and the free version of Reader but neither will open them. When I forward them to other clients, they cannot open them either but can open them from the original sender.

    Open Tools/Options/Advanced/general/Config. editor, copy mail.server.default.fetch_by_chunks into the search box, double-click the preference to make its value false, OK, restart TB, and see if you still have problems with pdf attachments.
    For messages that have already been received in IMAP accounts, you can force a re-download by selecting the Message Source (Ctrl-U), then try to open the attachment.

    The clients will have an application on their hard drive; it can be any application, even a custom application that they developed themselves. Then, they open a web page with a listbox full of items. Depending on which item they select, a query will return a file path to the .exe file itself. The .exe file resides on the client's hard drive, not on the server. So they're not downloading anything. Depending on the filepath returned by the query, the browser needs to start the process and open the .exe file for them.
    So let's say I have developed a simple text editor called Tedit. I have a file on my hard drive - "C:\TextEditor\bin\debug\TEdit.exe". When they click the open button, that file path is returned from the database. Then the javascript is called to start the process and open that program.
    Again, nothing is getting downloaded, the application resides on the user's hard drive and there is no file to associate it with.
    This can be done in IE using an ActiveX control. And it used to be possible in Firefox using the nsIFile or nsIProcess objects. But since FF15 that's not available anymore, so the javascript throws an error telling them that their permission is denied.
    What I need, is a javascript that will launch the .exe file from the user's hard drive without downloading anything.
