jf — Fri, 23 May 2008 02:00:34 +0000

I’ve just found a nice article that talks of a study performed by CareerBuilder.com, it talks about how IT workers have begun to gain weigh just by sitting all day in front of their computers . Let’s just hear what they have to say.

Here is a little intro:

Feeling a little, shall we say, sluggish lately? You might be among the vast ranks of IT workers who have put on some extra heft while sitting at their desks.

A study by CareerBuilder.com found that half of U.S. IT workers have gained weight at their current jobs.

The study, which polled nearly 7,700 participants from Feb. 11 through March 13, found that 34 percent of IT workers report they have gained more than 10 pounds in their current positions. Even more alarming, 17 percent say they have put on more than 20 pounds!…

Padding is invalid and cannot be removed.

Stop Google crawling WebResource.axd & ScriptResource.axd
As an ASP.NET developer i often get error message: “Padding is invalid and cannot be removed”. It’s a pretty annoying message that i have been trying to get rid of for days. It was caused by Google trying to index, crawl my WebResource.axd and session. But when the session expires you get this error message. Since Google caches the pages it visits the session on this page has already expired after it is crawled, when it tries to crawl the page again and request the WebResource.axd or ScriptResource.axd with an old key, an exception is raised.

Therefore to solve this problem the simple solution for that is to modify your robots.txt file in your root directory

and add the following at the end

Disallow: /ScriptResource.axd
Disallow:/WebResource.axd

With this no more issues regarding invalid padding.

If this does not solve your issue you can take a look at what other users propose here.

Some update on this issue, i found out while googling some days back:

On this post you can find out how to compress the webresource.axd and also somewhere in between prevent this error to occur.
