    Hi Bradly,

    Did you try doing an IISRESET on the SharePoint server? Can you also check the event viewer on the server for any more details?

    Gunjan,

    We tried IISRESET, but it didn't work.

    Here is a more detailed error:

    Hi Bradley,

    Will it be possible for you to restart Sharepoint services and check if that takes care of the issue?

    It's a caching issue that we have seen before. Mostly we used to restart the server hosting SharePoint.

    Hi bRradlyJames ,

    Did you recently install any security updates for Sharepoint? If so then this might be the reason:

    In sharepoint september 2020 Cu, new security rules were added :“allowServerSideScript=false” & “allowUnsafeControls=false” ,  It affects Sharepoint 2019 , 2016 , 2013 & 2010.

    more info:  support.microsoft.com/.../security-update-for-sharepoint-foundation-2010-sept-8-2020

    Andre,

    Funny you bring that up.  I just checked a few minutes before your comment and a bunch of security updates came through yesterday. I'll have to uninstall those...?

    Try this :

    In SharePoint web.config, find <SafeMode> tag

    Add this entry

    <PageParserPath VirtualPath="/*" CompilationMode="Always" AllowServerSideScript="true" AllowUnsafeControls="true" IncludeSubFolders="true"></PageParserPath>

    you will have something like this:

    <SafeMode ControlCompatMode="true" MaxControls="200" CallStack="false" DirectFileDependencies="10" TotalFileDependencies="250" AllowPageLevelTrace="false">
    <PageParserPaths>
    <PageParserPath VirtualPath="/*" CompilationMode="Always" AllowServerSideScript="true" AllowUnsafeControls="true" IncludeSubFolders="true"></PageParserPath>
    </PageParserPaths>
    </SafeMode>

    Hope this fixes your problem
