Hey I just noticed the viewstate provider isn't working...NO idea why :/
We have it setup to use the Sql provider...and if I query the DB I DO see entries in there, but LoadPageStateFromPersistenceMedium doesn't seem to ever get called when I debug.
public class CustomViewStatePage : System.Web.UI.Page
{
private System.Web.UI.PageStatePersister _pageStatePersister = null;
protected override System.Web.UI.PageStatePersister PageStatePersister
{
get
{
if (_pageStatePersister == null)
_pageStatePersister = ViewStateConfiguration.GetPageStatePersister(this.Page);
return _pageStatePersister;
}
}
protected override object LoadPageStateFromPersistenceMedium()
{
try
{
return base.LoadPageStateFromPersistenceMedium();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//Handle the missing viewstate by returning the empty state pair
System.Web.UI.PageStatePersister pageStatePersister = new System.Web.UI.HiddenFieldPageStatePersister(this.Page);
Debug.WriteLine(ex);
return new System.Web.UI.Pair(pageStatePersister.ControlState, pageStatePersister.ViewState);
}
}
}
