Brief Summery : We are using Tridion 2011 SP1 with out any hotfix, and a .net web application as Synchronization server (Profilesync.aspx) to synchronize the contact of subscription db and audience manger db. Also we are using Java 6.
Problem : After completing the installation when we hit the "Profilesync.aspx" page, it gives the error "Attempt to load JVM failed on native side".

Can some one help me to find whats going wrong.
Thanks in advance!!!!
Usually this means that there is a mismatch between 32bits and 64bits files (dll's) in combination with the installed Java version. If you installed the 64bits version of Java, be sure to also use the 64bits version of the SDL Tridion (OutboundEmail) Content Delivery dll's. Same goes for the 32bits version of Java; Use the 32bits version of the SDL Tridion Content Delivery dll's.
If Albert's post doesn't do it for you (although what he says is very correct), have a look at the same issue I had here HTTP Deployer throws "Attempt to load JVM failed on native side".
Just want to leave some notes to help somebody in the future.
If you verified that the proper .dlls were used but yet still encountering the error (Attempt to load JVM failed on native side).
Try uninstall all java run time in the system and re-install it back cleanly (install JRE 64-bit first)
I have seen this has helped resolved an issue for a customer of mine.

I found this error after publishing the site on the server.
I tried a lot to solve this problem from my side but nothing works for me.
I have tried to update all those packages with the latest and still does not work for me.
But, it works well when I run a project in Visual Studio without any problems.
I have checked these 2 links to fix my problem but it still doesn't work for me.

Update your web.config to specify a different version?
However, I tried to install the downgraded (older) version and I got a 404 error code, the resource could not be found.
Also, I have checked all the web config files where the version has been declared and it seems right for me.
I don't know what I should do with this error message.
It would be nice if someone could help me with this.

I've been searching for the fix of this issue for some time today, but I still got no luck to find the root cause. Maybe someone else encountered the same scenario and able to fix the issue. Thanks in advance.
Okay, basically I already migrated one of my client production SC instance to my local machine for an upgrade simulation from 8.0-U3 to 8.1-U2, and it is up and running in terms of accessing the CM (content editor, experience editor, publish and other more) and the health of logging is quite good.
Note that: I haven't started the simulation, so this is still in v.8.0-U3
Until I opened a page using Experience Editor (still good) and start adding new component (clicked the add here button), and then, I encountered the Palette.aspx 500 internal server error after checking it in the browser console log.
POST http://8.0-u3.sitecore.com/sitecore/shell/Applications/WebEdit/Palette.aspx 500 (Internal Server Error)
And so, as most curious developer will do, I opened the URL to see the full stack trace:

So I made some investigation and tweaking, I commented out the WebEdit Palette from Sitecore.AntiCSRF.config, just to check if there's any difference (seems not the right solution)
My self-arguement: Why do I have to edit this at all?

The previous SC log was not existing anymore, but got a new one below.

Unfortunately, up to this point, the error still persist and I still wasn't able to add new component because it returns a An error occurred pop up.
Anyone?
I've recently experienced the same issue on my environment. In my case it was because adding the component in certain placeholders was breaking the html structure and causing this issue.
It looks like it's having a problem parsing a Guid from the Allowed Renderings on your placeholder settings. Make sure you have only valid renderings selected. You may want to view the raw value to make sure it is a properly formatted pipe-delimited list of Guids.
It happened when we added a class in default.cshtml on the layout page. the JS frameworks conflicted
I have an ASP.NET MVC 5 application. It has a simple form and when the user submits it, the form is stored in the cache and then another controller action is called, this action will return the model as a view as a PDF.
I have no need to save it locally, just to show it in the browser so that the user can download it.
There is no need for a database either, that is why I store the model in the cache.
Locally, on Visual studio 2013, it works fine. But when I publish it to IIS 7 I get an Unhandled Execution Error. Here is the stack trace that I get back:

I first used ActionAsPDF() but now I also tried to use return new ViewAsPDF(). Both give the same error and stack trace. Does this have to do something with permissions?
This error is a missing C++ redistributable Package for Visual Studio 2013 file called (MSVCP120.dll).
To solve the issue:
Open the C++ redistributable Package for Visual Studio 2013 downloadable link below:
download Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013
Click Download and choose the file (vcredist_x86.exe) even if you are running X64 bit server version.
Install the file.
Check Jalal W Hijazi Blog http://jwhijazi.blogspot.com/2015/05/solving-rotativa-unhandled-exception.html for more details.
As mentioned in the comments on the blog linked in the answer, you can just copy the 2 following dll files to the rotativa folder on the server if you don't want to / can't easily install things on the server.
msvcr120.dll
msvcp120.dll
If it's working locally, you should have the two dll files available already.
You need the x86 versions, if you find x64 versions packaged with vs 2015 they don't work. I found the right versions here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC120.CRT
After upgrading to Rotativa 1.7.3 this no longer worked. I had to copy over some new dlls from visual studio 2017, i found them here this time:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC140.CRT
and i had to copy over
msvcp140.dll
vcruntime140.dll
The accepted answer almost worked for me. I was missing a newer version of the C++ redistributable so installing the old version didn't help.
The easiest way to find out what you are missing is to run wkhtmltopdf.exe manually. It will either give you console output (if working) or a message box about what's missing.
I was missing MSVCP140.dll, which is from the VS 2015 redist, available here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=48145
I fixed my issue by updating the wkhtmltopdf files from the installer found here
Working flawlessly now!
When I upgraded from Rotativa 1.6.4 to 1.7.3 my PDF conversion on my website app stopped working and after running the wkhtmltopdf.exe on my production server I noticed it was having an issue with msvcp140.dll
Solution was to install Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
I faced the same problem. Even the error logger wasn't logging anything.
After some research, I tried replacing the wkhtmltopdf.exe with the latest version available in wkhtmltopdf.org website, still no luck.
Finally copied msvcp120.dll and msvcr120.dll to the folder where I had the excutable and it worked. (There was no need of the latest version of wkhtmltopdf.exe, instead it worked with the version what I got from Nuget.)
msvcp120.dll and msvcr120.dll were available in the below directory in Windows 7.
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\
I installed Visual C ++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2015
https://www.microsoft.com/pt-br/download/details.aspx?id=48145
This solved for me.
I'm getting the following exception when building a website project in VS 2010:
The pre-application start initialization method Run on type WebActivator.ActivationManager threw an exception with the following error message: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation..
How do I go about debugging this? It's happening when I build in VS.NET and from the command-line (e.g., via NAnt/MSBuild).
To solve this, you need to supply the -errorstack argument to the aspnetcompiler. Then when it fails, you'll get not only the stack trace of the exception you're seeing now, but also the InnerException that it's wrapping. For instance, here's the output when the build error is caused by a problem with a Cassette dll not being loaded:

bActivator.ActivationManager threw an exception with the following error message

I had a very similar problem on our build-server (TeamCity), here's a clip from the build-log:
[00:10:39]: (MvcBuildViews target) ->

To diagnose the problem I ran ASPNET_COMPILER, using the -errorstack argument against what MSBUILD had generated for site. In this case:

In my case a dependency on one of the Azure assemblies (which wasn't installed on the build server) was the root of the problem.
Increase the verbosity level of the msbuild task or command line to get more detailed error messages.

In my case, I was seeing the message [AspNetCompiler] error ASPRUNTIME error message: Value cannot be null. in TeamCity.
In the full build logs, the more useful message at the bottom was:
error ASPRUNTIME : The pre-application start initialization method InitializePreStart on type MyApplication.MvcApplication threw an exception with the following error message: Value cannot be null.
As it turns out I had an exception being thrown by a method I had defined using PreApplicationStartMethod:
[assembly: System.Web.PreApplicationStartMethod(typeof(MyApp.MvcApplication), "InitializePreStart")]
namespace PrintFleet.PFE.RestService
{
public class MvcApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
//....
public static void InitializePreStart()
{
// exception thrown here
}
}
}
The cause in my case was my prestart method was loading settings from the registry, and they didn't exist on the build server (but did on my machine, so it worked when I built it). I have no clue why webdeployment projects run this code.
I wrapped the entire thing in a try..catch that logs a fatal message (which in my app, goes to both the log file and windows event log). In builds, I don't really care if it fails since it doesn't need to do anything. In actual installations, if the settings are missing the app won't work (and so the log explains why).
Now, to the OP the problem seems to be in web activator. I would not be surprised if there is a method using webactivor in App_Start folder that is throwing the error, which is making it look like it's coming from WebActivator. Check there first, wrap things in try..catch if needed. It's also possible there is a bug in webactivator itself.
So because I came across this post while researching the problem, hopefully this information is useful to at least someone else.
TL;DR: Web deployment projects run the ApplicationPreStart methods when they compile. Ensure that you have try..catch blocks around any code run at prestart time or can otherwise handle the situation where the code is executed during compile time on your build server(s), outside of the IIS/hosting environment.
I have a ASP.NET "website" which uses a 32-bit dll. When I XCOPY to our 64-bit server, the page which uses this 32-bit dll throws an exception. I've already set the "Enable 32-Bit Applications" to True for the App Pool the site runs on but that doesn't help.
I'm also trying to set the target platform to x86 but the Website has no option for it unlike a Web app.

I did an online search for the exception "Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {58968145-CF05-4341-995F-2EE093F6ABA3} failed due to the following error: 80040154." and enabled the 32-bit mode on IIS7 but still no luck.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
** ANSWER **
I was able to fix this issue with the help from user Kev. Here's what I did -
Download Microsoft Developer Support OLE File Property Reader 2.1 Sample (KB 224351) from here
Extract the contents to a temp folder using WinZip/7-zip etc. Don't run the Setup. Copy the files "Interop.DSOFile.dll" and "dsofile.dll" from the extracted location over to the bin directory of the app on the Server.
Open a cmd prompt with Admin rights and navigate to the bin directory on the Server
Type in "regsvr32 dsofile.dll"
Make sure the App Pool is set to Enable 32-Bit applications.
Restart IIS
Thank you very much, Kev. I really appreciate it.
This sounds like the COM component isn't registered on the server. You need to copy the component (dsofile.dll) to the server and run regsvr32.exe to register it:
regsvr32 dsofile.dll
You also need to make sure that the account that the website runs under has read access to this file or its containing folder.
It might also be worth trying building your project and changing the build to target x86 instead of Any CPU, though I doubt that's the problem.
You probably need to set the application pool the app is running in to run as x86.
