    MakeRequest Proxy Issues?

    I have an application that has been working reasonably well since the launch, but occassionally I see errors like the following.

    • User invokes a makeRequest() call which fetches some JSON data from our server
    • Before the data makes it all the way back to our system, we get an error.

    The following is a copy of the meat of the error message (which is all HTML). I know this isn't ours because we're a LAMP based application, not Microsoft.

    Runtime Error
    Server Error in '/' Application.
    Runtime Error

    Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

    <!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
    <configuration>
        <system.web>
            <customErrors mode="Off"/>
        </system.web>
    </configuration>

    Hi,

    The error message looks like a proxy error message. How frequently do you encounter this issue?

     Thanks

    During peak traffic times about 1 in 10 - it's really making it hard for us to use the OpenSocial container and I don't want to re-write the application as an IFRAME to avoid this.

    If nothing else, perhaps the proxy servers could be set to return JSON or XML or whatever type was requested if an error throws? I'm having trouble determining if this is a MySpace issue or if our servers response time is too slow and causing MySpace to throw this error as a result.

    Re: MakeRequest Proxy Issues?

    Agreed - we should be returning a proper error msg. Looks like we have an issue where in we're returning a generic 500 error message instead of one which clearly states the reason. We'll work on getting a fix out for this... Thanks Chak
