Ado command object returns method 'Execute' of object '_Connection' failed

Error: method 'Execute' of object '_Connection' failed

Solution: Check the query used while executing the recordset, it may contain keyword used in the database. In my case, my query is:

select languageid, language from masterlanguage order by languageid

The error occurs because I use a keyword in the query, i.d. language.
To fix the error, either change the column name on the database, or use []:

select languageid, [language] from masterlanguage order by languageid

Disabling web.config inheritance for child application

Error:
Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: Could not load file or assembly 'Control' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. (d:\Web\VS\Website\web.config line 82)

Source Error:

Line 77: <httphandlers>

Line 83: </httphandlers>

Solution:
I have an application which has a child (sub folder) application in it. In my case, I added a tag in the parent application:

<add path="SecurityImageHandler.ashx" verb="*" type="Control.SecurityImageControlHandler, Control">

When deployed, an error occurs in the child application, since the assembly added in the parent application is also recognized by the child application. To avoid the child application from reading the tag added on the parent application, we have to remove the tag on the web.config of the child application.

After adding the code to remove the tag, it will look like this:

 <httpHandlers>
   ...........
   ...........
   <remove verb="*" path="SecurityImageHandler.ashx"/>
   ...........

Error uploading file in ASP.NET

Error:
XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: http://10.21.9.12/Web/UploadFile.aspx
Line Number 1, Column 1:
^

This error occurs because the size of the file uploaded is too big and not handled in the web.config.

Solution: add this tag to the web.config in the <system.web></system.web> section:

<system.web>
    <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="2048000">
</system.web>

There's a limitation used in the maxRequestLength. 2048000 is the value I use in VS 2008. If I'm not mistaken, in VS 2003, the maxRequestLength is 1024000. Note that this value is in KB (Kilo Byte).
