| I have found the problem and solved it. The error came when I was attempting to write some code that would store an image path that should have looked like this: ~/Images/nameofimage.bmp using a data type of nvarchar(max). Instead it created a bunch of rectangles and foreign characters (??????? Aa) that the unicode could not translate hence causing the error. So the entire problem was based in the database table due to some improper code on my part that caused/allowed some odd characters to be stored in the table where the Unicode character could not be translated. I deleted the row in the table and everything is working correctly again now. |
