Hi,

I am getting the following error when I added the .aspx extension to a page url. The url looks like this now:

test/.../.aspx
 

Server Error in '/' Application.

The length of the URL for this request exceeds the configured maxUrlLength value.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: The length of the URL for this request exceeds the configured maxUrlLength value.

Source Error:

Hello Annie,

This is general error, which is related to the fact that the URL is longer than expected. The following article may be useful to you: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.configuration.httpruntimesection.maxurllength.aspx - if you want to increase the maxurllength setting  you need to add / edit the following section in your web.config file:

<system.web>
  <httpRuntime maxUrlLength="4096" /> (for example)

On a side note: the url seems to contain some forbidden symbols ( such as the dot ) which may lead to false URLs as well.


Kind regards,
