How to fix Error executing child request?

I am building an asp.net app and I keep getting this error while trying to transfer pages:

Error executing child request for Edit_PropertyData.aspx

I have no clue what's causing it or how to fix it, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here is the Page_Load event of Edit_PropertyData.aspx

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

    cmdChangeMaterial.Attributes.Add("onclick", "CheckSaveStatus();")
    cmdEditMaterial.Attributes.Add("onclick", "CheckSaveStatus();")

    If Session("Mode") Is "Edit" Then
        cmdEditMaterial.Enabled = True
        cmdSaveData.Enabled = True
    Else
        cmdEditMaterial.Enabled = False
        cmdSaveData.Enabled = False
    End If

    pnlMain.Visible = True
    pnlMain.Height = Unit.Pixel(650)

End Sub

Server.Transfer doesn't allow you to do a lot of things. You're probably trying to use it to pass query string parameters or some such. But you don't need that - the URL doesn't change in the target of the transfer, so you've still got the original query string. This can be both a good and a bad thing, depending on how you use it :)

You probably want to use a different transfer method instead - if you're inside a HttpModule, have a look at HttpContext.Current.RewritePath.

What have you tried so far? A quick search gives a number of similar error messages with proposed and accepted solutions.

You don't mention what you're transferring from, but I suspect Response.Redirect or HttpContext.Current.RewritePath will be a better alternative for you.
