Description:
Eventough webpart is very powerfull, but debuging web part is painfull. For example, you forget to put try-catch block in your code - and one day you get error without any clue to edit. Or imagine, you're creating on-the-fly graph web part, and send wrong HTML header to the page. Causing Sharepoint page shows image only and no interface to access.

What should we do ?

Remember that Sharepoint has spcontnt.aspx - an interface to edit web farm content,

http://[YOURSITES/_layouts/1033/spcontnt.aspx?&url=[FULLYENCODED_WEBFARMPAGE]

Change [YOURSITES] to url of your site, and [FULLYENCODED_WEBFARMPAGE] to url to your web farm.aspx page.

Then, close the offending web part.
