Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message received from the server could not be parsed
C#asp.netC# Problem Overview
I have a grid view on my page and I want to export it to the Excel Sheet,
Below is the code I had written to do this task, here I am already passing the dataset to the method to bind the grid and btnExcelExport
is the button which will export the Grid Content in to Excel Sheet :-
private void BindGridView(DataSet ds)
{
if (ds.Tables.Count > 0)
{
if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
{
GVUserReport.DataSource = ds;
GVUserReport.DataBind();
btnExcelExport.Visible = true;
}
}
}
protected void btnExcelExport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Clear();
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition","attachment;filename=FileName.xls");
Response.Charset = "";
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.xls";
System.IO.StringWriter stringWrite = new System.IO.StringWriter();
System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htmlWrite = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWrite);
GVUserReport.RenderControl(htmlWrite);
Response.Write(stringWrite.ToString());
Response.End();
}
public override void VerifyRenderingInServerForm(Control control)
{
return;
}
Now when I am debugging I found that the grid is binded sucessfully but when trying to export it to Excel, I'm getting this error:
> "Microsoft JScript runtime error: > Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message > received from the server could not be parsed."
C# Solutions
Solution 1 - C#
I fixed this issue. As I'm using UpdatePanel
, I added below code in the Page_Load
event of the page and it worked for me:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
ScriptManager scriptManager = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page);
scriptManager.RegisterPostBackControl(this.btnExcelExport);
//Further code goes here....
}
Solution 2 - C#
In my case, the problem was caused by some Response.Write commands at Master Page of the website (code behind). They were there only for debugging purposes (that's not the best way, I know)...
Solution 3 - C#
I added the control to the Triggers
tag in the update panel:
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID="exportLinkButton" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
This way the exportLinkButton will trigger the UpdatePanel to update.

Solution 4 - C#
1- Never use Response.Write.
2- I put the code below after create (not in Page_Load) a LinkButton (dynamically) and solved my problem:
ScriptManager scriptManager = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page);
scriptManager.RegisterPostBackControl(lblbtndoc1);
Solution 5 - C#
I had the same error, then I tried <asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID="xyz"/>
instead of AsyncPostBackTrigger .This worked for me. It is because we don't want a partial postback.
Solution 6 - C#
For my VB.Net Friends -
Dim scriptManager As ScriptManager = scriptManager.GetCurrent(Me.Page)
scriptManager.RegisterPostBackControl(Me.YourButtonNameHere)
Solution 7 - C#
Add this to you PageLoad and it will solve your problem:
ScriptManager scriptManager = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page);
scriptManager.RegisterPostBackControl(this.lblbtndoc1);
Solution 8 - C#
This worked for me too, but with an addition (below).
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
ScriptManager scriptManager = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page);
scriptManager.RegisterPostBackControl(this.btnExcelExport);
//Further code goes here....
}
I was registering a script on my button to click on another button after its event was finished processing. In order for it to work, I had to remove the other button from the Update Panel (just in case somebody faces the same problem).
Solution 9 - C#
What worked for me was setting aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys to a high value on appSettings tag on the inetpub VirtualDirectories\443\web.config file:
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys" value="100000" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>
