Hello,

I made a web service making changes to a pdf for this, it takes as input : the PDF file encoded in base 64 and the output : pdf file amended encoded as base 64.

I have the exception below:
The formatter threw an exception while trying to deserialize the message: An error occurred while trying to deserialize parameter http://tempuri.org/:webservice_64Response. The InnerException message was "An error occurred during deserialization of the object type webservice_consommation.ServiceReference1.webservice_64ResponseBody. Exceeding the quota limit for the length of string content (8192) when reading XML data. This quota may be increased by modifying the property MaxStringContentLength XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas the object used when creating the XML reader. Line 1, position 29421. . For more information, see InnerException.

Can we increase the quota?

Thank you very much.

Hello,

I use this method to encode in base 64 :

[WebMethod]
       public string EncodeFileTo64Digits(string File_Path_input)
       {
           string base64;
           using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(File_Path_input, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
           {
               string ext;
               byte[] data = new byte[fs.Length];
               fs.Read(data, 0, data.Length);
               base64 = Convert.ToBase64String(data);
               ext = base64;
               return ext;
           }
       }

Thank you verry mutch for hlep me to resolve this great problem.

You seem to be intent in persisting in this behaviour. Instead of adding this snippet here, you should amend the question below because that contains the original question, along with answers that have already been given. I will say that if your intent is to download the file, you should return a byte[] and not an encoded string.

Hello,

I am sorry, but i must return the encoded base 64 file, i consume my web service like this :

ServiceReference2.TEST_ServicesSoapClient ff = new encode_consommation.ServiceReference2.TEST_ServicesSoapClient();
string rr = ff.transformPDF("fqrgfqfsgfdsgfg.....");

I checked the all execution step, so they stops at the return of my string.

Thank you verry mutch.

Hello,

I test my web service with soapUI, my methos return the correct encode base 64.
I call the web service correctly ?

Thanks Keith. Surprisingly enough, I'm not actually in competition with JSOP. He's written far more articles than me so his position would be difficult to assail - what I do want though, is for JSOP and me to be able to beat CG on combined post counts.

I don't think that will ever happen. CG has far too many hardware and software problems and disputes with Qantas, Telstra, and TicketMaster to complain about, and every couple of weeks, his post count goes up by 1000 or so while he describes his latest travails...

Smile | :)

No john, surely your Tag team can beat CG as Pete said. Smile | :)

I wish CG will get good things & good net connection soon quickly.

This is true. It's a worthy goal though, and some people want me to post follow up articles on jQuery, so I might be able to push my article count up that way. That should help us beat CG.

A quick google gave loads of hits, most of which, including this[^] one, indicate that the problem lies in your .config file.

BTW: I googled on XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas

For WCF services you can configure it in your service binding configuration:

<bindings>
  <wsHttpBinding>

    <binding name="....">
      ...
      <readerQuotas  maxDepth="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647" maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" 
      ...
    </binding>
  </wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>

Hello,

whene i can fin the service binding configuration ? can you give me the path of file witch contain this ?

Thank you verry mutch.

modify XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas

26-Dec-10 7:08

It is probably in the WCF's web.config file, depending on how you have set things up.
