WebExcelReporter throws "Maximum Request Length Exceeded"
posted

Hi Team,

      The WebDataGrid Export to Excel functionality given by WebExcelReporter throws the following error of kind.

Maximum request length exceeded.   at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetEntireRawContent()     at System.Web.HttpRequest.FillInFormCollection()     at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_Form()     at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_HasForm()     at System.Web.UI.Page.GetCollectionBasedOnMethod(Boolean dontReturnNull)     at System.Web.UI.Page.DeterminePostBackMode()     at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)

Any how, I have overcome the same by setting the maxrequestlength property of the httpRuntime to a higher value.

 <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1048576" />

However, I would like to know why it caused the issue in my case even though my WebDataGrid has data much less than 4 MB (640 KB around), which is the default maximum request length used by IIS. In that case, it should not throw error ?

Regards,

Sudharshan.
