Using CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) inside Asp.Net WebApplication

Question

I've packed Joel solution (http://joelverhagen.com/blog/2013/12/headless-chromium-in-c-with-cefglue/) in a library because I need to use it inside an ASP.Net WebApplication. The library works fine as standalone but hangs on (on some internal unidentified process) when invoked inside a webapp. Have you ever tryed this running mode? Have you got an idea about what could be the problem? Thanks a lot

Answer 1

Where are you running the ASP.NET site and under what security profile? My guess is that this is going wrong because it is running in a context where GDI operations aren't allowed. Even if no window is created, GDI is still used to do the rendering.

This same problem has affected me with PhantomJS which is why I ask.
