Generic Handler not working on IIS

问题:

What made me curious is that the generic handler works just fine when I'm running the Web App in a Visual Studio ASP.NET Development Server. When I change the config to run it directly from IIS the handler just dies.

I'm not really an expert on this, so bare with me.

It's an image handler, it writes back an array of bytes to be rendered in an Image object. As I said, it works fine in VS Development Server, but fails on IIS. It doesn't even get called...

The error I get when I'm trying to call it directly is this:

Parser Error Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately. Parser Error Message: Could not create type 'YourImageHandler'. Source Error: Line 1: <%@ WebHandler Language="C#" CodeBehind="YourImagehandler.ashx.cs" Class="YourImageHandler" %>

Any ideas?

EDIT:

More Info:

Handler on web.config:

<system.web>
    <httpHandlers>
      <add verb="*" path="*.ashx"  type="YourImageHandler"/>
    </httpHandlers>
</system.web> 

The Generic Handler is in the same assembly of the Web Project, and the whole thing is running on IIS 7.

If you are using IIS 7 in pipeline mode then the handler definition must be in <System.webServer> Like this:

<system.webServer>
<handlers>
    <add name="YourImageHandlerName" path="*.ashx" verb="*" type="YourImageHandler" />
</handlers>
</system.webServer>

Check here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/tmarq/archive/2007/08/30/iis-7-0-asp-net-pipelines-modules-handlers-and-preconditions.aspx

IIS 7.0 has two pipeline modes: integrated and classic. The latter is sometimes referred to as ISAPI mode.

Integrated mode allows both managed and native modules to register for events in the IIS pipeline. This enables many new scenarios, such as applying ASP.NET forms authentication to non-asp.net requests (static files, classic ASP files, etc).

Classic mode is identical to IIS 6.0. In classic mode, the ASP.NET pipeline (BeginRequest, AuthenticateRequest,…, EndRequest) runs entirely within the IIS pipeline’s EXECUTE_REQUEST_HANDLER event. Think of ASP.NET in classic mode as a pipeline within a pipeline.

The other option is to run your site in "classic" mode, in classic mode IIS 7 works like IIS 6 and has the same behaviour (for what matters here) as your Cassini web server.

Hope that help.

You have to add preCondition attribute in web.config file

    <add name="HandlerName" verb="*" path="Handlers/HandlerName.ashx" type="Namespace/HandlerClassName, MyAssembly, Version=1.0.*, Culture=neutral" preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv4.6.1"/>

Its working for my error now.

I think you should add a managed handler mapping to IIS. it is not enough to add config. You can look here .
