I am getting a dump ONLY in the server and not in my local system when trying to post the data. There is a page which submits some value to the database. I have also modeled the dropdown in the page as mandatory. However, when clicking on "Create", instead of giving an error like "Missing"; it throws a dump.
Dump trace:
Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: items
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.
