Type Initializer Exception Only In .exe?
Nov 18, 2011
Exception Message happens when my splash screen shows: The type initializer for 'App_Name.GlobalThings' threw an exception GlobalThings is not a class, but just a module name (Module Globalthings). I get the error above at run time (.exe) but not during debug.Because I am brand new not only to visual studio and to visual basic, but also to programming, I have no how to figure out what is actually throwing this error since it occurs only at run time.

I've got a visual basic 2008 application that is giving me a type initializer exception when I run it in debug. The application is running on windows server 2008.There are some .dll files that are added as references and I have some global declarations files.When I run this on my PC (XP) the application runs. When I run it in the server environment, I get the exception.The details are: -[code].....Do I need to install something additonally to the server to get this running?

We have just converted a large VB6 desktop app to VB.NET 2008. First via the VB 2005 (open project), then days of fixing errors, etc. Then opened the VB 2005 in VB 2008 so now it is a 2008 solution.The more we try to test the worse it gets. It did start and crash with typical errors but now it does not even get off the ground.[code]The more we try to fix the earlier it crashes. The 1st form load does not even start (break point not stopped on but it did before and failed on AppFrameWorkOn = True where AppFramWorkOn is just a boolean in another module.Except same code works in other programs.We have written several dozen other VB.Net 2005 programs but this one just doesn't make sense.There is also no Configuration Manager in the Build menu.

We have a VB .Net windows application developed with VS 2005, framework 2.0.
The executable when run on a different machine throws the above error. It cannot be caught with the IDE due none of the developers experiencing it.

The application works fine on Vista but throws this error on Windows 7:
- The type initializer threw an exception.
This is the code that causes it:
Public UserName As String = String.Empty
UserName = Environment.UserName

I am creating a medium/largish program in VB Express 2008. To keep it more simple i have created each section of the program in individual projects/solutions and then when they all work well, copy the code from each project into one Big project. Everything was fine, but when i put the global variables all together in 1 module, i get the following error:'The type initializer for 'WindowsApplication1.Module1' threw an exception.' This appears everytime a line of code is ran that reads/writes to a var in the module.

I've been writing an application, and all has been going smoothly; I tried to debug my application, after many previous debugging sessions and from nowhere, I received an error. I've not changed the module in which the error is coming from, but I can't narrow the error down either.
Here's the error: The type initializer for 'HG520b.MHProgramming' threw an exception.
This occurs any time I attempt to debug my application and linked to a function, property or enum which resides in my module.I don't know where to start looking for this error seen as it's all random...

Is there something wrong with my connection string that I would get this exception thrown back at me from my code?

Connection = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename= C:Documents and SettingsTTTMy DocumentsBASEO.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"

I have a large project where we have 2-3 dll projects that are converted from VB6 to VB.NET. We have fixed all the issues that caused compilation errors, and most of obvious issues in running, so now we have basically a program up and running. The exe is created from scratch in VB.NET, using a lot of functionality from the converted dll's (including GUI forms). What I wonder is when I run the program in debug mode, I get a bunch of warnings in the "Immediate Window" saying:
A first chance exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll
...and some of other type (but most of them in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll).I was wondering if this is common in projects converted from VB6, or if it is caused by bad design in our code...

I'm trying to catch a user defined permission exception - i.e. a user does something their level of system access won't allow, permission exception is thrown. My problem is, the exception is caught and then rethrown as a genertic System.Exception.Is there any way I can deduce the original exception type, without resorting to string comparisons, like if ex.ToString.Contains("Permission denied"

When catching an exception in .net, you can have as many type-specific exception blocks as needed. But I usually try to have at least one "general" exception catch block. But is there a way to get the type of the "real" exception thrown that is caught by the generic exception handler, perhaps using reflection?For example, if I have
Catch ex As System.ServiceModel.FaultException(Of InvalidUser)
ProcessModuleLoadException(Me, ex)
Catch ex As System.ServiceModel.FaultException(Of SQLExceptions)

I am using VB.NET 2005 to create a Windows forms application. I have a procedure named SendMail that creates an instance of Outlook.Application, to send an email from my application. I found the code on this forum, I think.The procedure works fine, but I can't use error handling with it.I call the procedure from a button click event. I put the procedure call in a try/catch block, and the application won't build, with the following error.

I have a project converted from Visual Studio 2005 to Visual Studio 2010. It compiles and runs.
When I prune "unused references's from this project as listed by Visual Studio, the project fails to compile with the subject error message.
In particular one of the "unused refererences" is to "Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll". The IDE does not allow me to add back this particular reference.
What do I need to add back as a referenceto get this items?

i know this may seam odd but I'm getting an error navigating through a datagrid of an invalid cast. The trouble is it is of the same types!! I working on customising some Sage code and in the form there is a datagrid that is populated by a series of Sage.Accounting.Stock.TraceableSOPAllocationItems (a batched stock item allocated to an SOP).
I want to give the user some further information on each item so they can decide which batch and bin to use. I want to go through each item in the grid and then go find this extra information for it. the trouble is when I go to navigate through, My VB.Net code throws the error.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code, Unable to cast object of type 'Sage.Accounting.Stock.TraceableSOPAllocationItem' to type 'Sage.Accounting.Stock.TraceableSOPAllocationItem'.
