HTTP 500 Error with Ver. 3.6(current ver)

Hello,

Trying to migrate over to the 3.6 ver. of FileUltimate and I'm getting a http 500 error Response Content type is not application/json.  Has anyone seen this?  I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing.

Hi Jonathan,
I can guess what causes your problem.
I remember that we implemented AD authentication for your project and edited Global.asax for ignoring some requests in Application_AcquireRequestState method. It was something like

if (!Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/fileAccess.aspx"), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
                && !Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/fileultimate/"), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
                return;


In v3.6, FileUltimate related requests do no longer start with /fileultimate, instead they are either filemanager.ashx or fileuploader.ashx so you should use something like this

if (!Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/fileAccess.aspx"), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
                && !Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/filemanager.ashx "), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
                && !Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/fileuploader.ashx"), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
                return;

Hey Cem,

We actually commented that out ( we and as in you and I ), so I don't think that is the issue.  I could very well be wrong. 

Here is my global.asax:

using System;
using System.Security.Principal;
using System.Threading;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Configuration;
using System.Web.SessionState;
using System.Web.Security;

namespace CelltronInternal 
{
    public class Global : HttpApplication
    {
        
        protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        protected void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        protected void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        protected void Application_AuthenticateRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
     
        }

        protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        protected void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Session.Abandon();
        }

        protected void Application_AcquireRequestState(object sender, EventArgs e)        
        {
            //System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Application_AcquireRequestState");

            /*
            if (!Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/fileAccess.aspx"), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
                && !Request.RawUrl.StartsWith(Server.MapPath("~/FileUltimate/fileultimate/"), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
                return;
            */

            ActiveDirectoryAuthManager.ImpersonateLoggedonUser();
        }

        protected void Application_PostRequestHandlerExecute(object send, EventArgs e)
        {
            ActiveDirectoryAuthManager.UndoImpersonateLoggedonUser();
        }
 
        protected void Application_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
                
        }
    }
}

Hey Cem,

That seems to work, I'll upload tonight and see if I can still access from home.  I can't remember honestly why we commented it out the first go around..
