HandiTax - Error Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application

Updated over a month ago

In HandiTax when changing the lodgment mode to ATO Credential Authentication the Error: 'unhandled exception' may occur.

  1. To resolve the error you must open HandiTax directly on the server and change the lodgment mode there.

  2. Afterwards when changing the lodgment mode on the workstation, the error will no longer occur.

If the above solution still doesn't work, please copy the Machine Credential .XML File (eg. Keystore-new.xml) file onto the <Server>\HSoft folder and then browse for the keystore file. Set the correct lodgment mode using steps below.
​
Steps to change the lodgment mode:

  1. Open HandiTax in the year with the issue

  2. Go to Lodgment, Set ATO Credentials

  3. Change the setting from Access ATO Gateway, to ATO Credential Authentication

  4. Enter your credential password, then click Ok.

  5. Restart HandiTax

  6. Attempt your lodgment or prefill again.
