    At my site, this meta tag were causing the error:

    <base href="http://www.SITEURL.COM" />
    

    I have a dropdown, I update on another dropdowns changed selection. So when the postback happened (dropdown #2 changed index), I got the exception.

    I've tried everything else from applying machinekey to web.config and setting theese attributes at the page

    EnableViewState="false" EnableViewStateMac="false"

    Isnt this just a case of putting a one liner in your web.config

    <machineKey decryptionKey="A4B12CCDD50E95F8GB9GFH6JKAT4Y0U0I2OF2DF2AAFE5AB46189C,IsolateApps" validation="AES" validationKey="480CDF2AS9S9AS5CFDGF0GHFH9JJH4KHKAKLJ2L9F3SAS82A6C16911A29EF48903783F94529C21570AACB72766FB38CD4CE7B85B0ACE3149DC5FC1CCF1AA1CECE3579659996593B06,IsolateApps"/>

    Well, yes i suppose disabling encrypted viewstate solves the problem but i have never tested it nor do I advise it. Viewstate stores the state of controls and is also very convenient for storing persistent variables.

    Take for example you work for a garage and have a list of jobs. You go to a page that lists the jobs. Now you click a job which goes to another page appending the jobid (eg. job.aspx?id=1). On that page, there is a checkbox which marks the job as complete. Once you tick that checkbox, it posts data back to same page and writes to the database that the job is complete. But how does the server know which job to mark as complete because you have only posted back true or false from the checkbox. However, if the first time you load the job details page you record the job id in Viewstate, then when you post pack the checkbox, you can read in the jobid from the viewstate.

    Why is it not good to use unencrypted viewstate?

    Imagine what the server has to do to mark the job as complete. It probably has to run an sql command to update the database. Something like UPDATE jobs SET completed=GETDATE() WHERE id=1.

    If your viewstate wasnt encrypted and i could add my own job id, I would put something like '; DELETE FROM jobs;' which would then cancel out the initial UPDATE command and delete ALL your jobs... not very good for the garage :)

    You're not going to like my answer. This error is basically unavoidable in webforms. My solution was to leave webforms for MVC3 and razor.

    I noticed that the problem seems to happen when i postBack and the page has not finished loading yet.

    this is one of the easiest ways to cause this error. In ASP.NET 3.5 (or 4.0) there's a setting that you can make sure viewstate gets loaded very early in the page to try to help diminish it. It still doesn't solve it.

    Chunking the viewstate doesn't solve it.

    There is just something inherently wrong to the way webforms works that this error will plague your application at random times forever.

    I am using VS 2010 against a Windows Web Server 2008 and what I eventually found was that I had two keys set for the same service in the appSettings section of webconfig. I went to IIS and checked the Application Settings on the virtual directory and got an error, fixed it in the WebConfig and the problem resolved. I did create a machine key but that did not fix the problem. Nor did the

    pages (...) validateRequest="false" enableEventValidation="false" enableViewStateMac="false" viewStateEncryptionMode ="Never"/

    Settings. FWIW ...

    One thing I have come across that causes this issue has to do with the recycling intervals of the app-pools on the webserver.

    I found this by looking at the event information in Eventviewer/Application logs and the "Task Category" called "Web Event". Then for the time period that this event took place I looked to see if there were any recycled events that took place just before that (Eventviewer/System logs and the "Source" called "WAS".

    By default an app-pool will recycle every 1740 minutes (29 hours). If this recycle happened while a user is busy on the site and send post back to the server, the server no longer recognizes the session/viewstate and rejects what is being posted back.

    To overcome this from our perspective is to set the recycle event to happen at a specific time of the day when we don't expect activity on the site. In our case 3am in the morning.

    Hope that helps someone out there.
