Invalid length for a Base-64 char array

Hi all,


I am intermittently getting the error below (I cannot reproduce it when I try) on my Asp.Net site. As you can tell from the stacktrace information, I really cannot see where in my code, if at all, this error is arising.


I have never seen this error on my local development system, or in any of the places I have worked doing Web development. Yet, it is fairly common (though intermittent) on this site.


Can anyone tell me what might be causing this, and what I might do about it?


Thanks,





-- John

Thanks for responding.

Yes, I keep a ton of stuff in viewstate. But that is not something that's going to change. What I don't understand is why it is getting corrupted, and/or what I can do about it.
