I searched in the internet and there was no solution that worked for
me. The funny thing is, that the same application work fine on a
different server.

Thanks for every help!

Here is the complete Error-Code:

Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a
Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies
the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be

used in a cluster.


Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of
the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more
information about the error and where it originated in the code.


Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: Validation of viewstate
MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster,
ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey

and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.

I had the exact same problem. For me, whenever I pressed the logoff button
from any other page besides the default page, it would give me that error.
I'm able to press the logoff button, sometimes twice to get it to logoff, but
it does log off. The only problem now is that I cant update my database (ex.
I cant use the change password feature to change my password.)
