You are trying to convert a string of 2048 NULL characters to integer value. Of course it would give an exception. What are you trying to achieve?

It contains an answer (you asked what's wrong with your code? it tries to convert obviously incorrect data, nothing more) and a question: what should your code actually do? You have an answer for the question now, and if you bother to explain what do you actually try to achieve, you could also get some help
