We've recently integrated Cute Chat with our current member database.  Everything seems to work fine under normal circumstances, but we've noticed one error that seems to be tied back to the global.asax file that I haven't been able to quite clear up (I'm new to C# and .NET 2.0 as well).  It's an obscure error, but it generates the same error message in a loop filling up the Errors folder.

 

Apparently the error occurs when:

 

1. A user is in a chat room and then logs out of the main site from a different page while leaving the chat page open.

2. Another user logs in from the same computer with the chat room still open and refreshes the chat room page.

 

The chat room will then show both users temporarily which causes the error below to repeat in a cycle as a NullReferenceException.txt in the errors folder, but it doesn't seem to affect anything in the chat room or on the website (this is rare, but it happens).

Sorry for the delayed reply... been redirected for a while.

 

We put the try...catch on and the error above is, I'm assuming, being caught, but the one error that is generating every few minutes now is

 I saw a couple of posts related to this error and was wondering if we need to download the control again.    We have the 10-30-2008 version unless the package has been updated and the date has not changed. 

Any thoughts anyone?
