If you write the following code in a asmx web service to create site in SharePoint 2010

    1: SPSite site = null;
    2: SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(() =>
    3: {
    4:     SPSiteSubscription subscription = SPSiteSubscription.Create();
    5:     site = webApp.Sites.Add(subscription, siteUrl, title, description, lcid, webTemplate, ownerLogin, ownerName, ownerEmail, null, null, null, useHostHeaderAsSiteName); // exception
    6:     site.AdministrationSiteType = SPAdministrationSiteType.TenantAdministration;
    7: });

You will see the following exception :-

Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: The security validation for this page is invalid. Click Back in your Web browser, refresh the page, and try your operation again. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The security validation for this page is invalid. Click Back in your Web browser, refresh the page, and try your operation again.

Operating System: Windows Server 2008

Time Zone: (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada)

Though the above code snippet works perfectly fine in console application but asmx is webrequest and SharePoint handles web request differently. All the webrequest validated with the FromDigest control. To get rid-off from this error message, we can change the web application validation settings in Central Administration > Web Application General Settings Page.

Got to page “Web Page Security Validation” and select Security Validation is “Off” radio button.

But this will off the page validation for the complete web application and you can’t take this risk.

To resolve this we have web application’s from digest settings property which we can turf before executing the code and turn on once the site has been created using the SharePoint object Model.

Disabling the from digest :-

SPWebapplication.FormDigestSettings.Enabled = false;

Enabling the from digest :-

SPWebapplication.FormDigestSettings.Enabled = true;

SPWebapplication’s FromDigestSettings property is type of SPFormDigestSettings which related to Web page security validation. The security validation is specific to a user, site, and time period and expires after a configurable amount of time. When the user requests a page, the server returns the page with security validation inserted. When the user then submits the form, the server verifies the security validation and if it has changed, program execution is halted and a security exception is raised.

Hi, Site.AllowUnsafeUpdates and Web.AllowUnsafeUpdates should be sufficient
