SharePoint error : An error occurred while processing your request
I’ve just trying to get a Provider Hosted sample working – with a AZURE website – and an Office 365 App. This has been an “all day” thing – not working !
I’d done all the steps – with the ClientId – and ClientSecret – and included in my WEB.CONFIG.
But – when accessing my App, I’d simply see a message :
An error occurred while processing your request
This is coming from the following code – within the ‘default.aspx’ for the website.
protected void Page_PreInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Uri redirectUrl;
switch (SharePointContextProvider.CheckRedirectionStatus(Context, out redirectUrl))
{
case RedirectionStatus.Ok:
return;
case RedirectionStatus.ShouldRedirect:
Response.Redirect(redirectUrl.AbsoluteUri, endResponse: true);
break;
case RedirectionStatus.CanNotRedirect:
Response.Write(“An error occurred while processing your request.“);
Response.End();
break;
}
}
So – it was LOADING my site, but couldn’t display.
It turns out, that I’d been ‘faster-stepping’ through the wizard to assign the “CLIENT ID” and “CLIENT SECRET”.
If/when you’re using APPREGNEW.ASPX – make sure to put the correct Azure WebSite domain…
As below – the APP DOMAIN is important – don’t just put ‘contoso’ or ‘localhost’.
It turns out, I’d been “super careful” on the CLIENT ID and CLIENT SECRET – but not paying much attention to the App-Domain.
Hope this helps – it woulda saved me a bunch-of-hours…!
