Hi everybody!
I am using RadAjaxPanel on my page, on the click of a button (cod behind) I use Response.Redirect but the redirect is not working. I am getting the following error:

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message received from the server could not be parsed.

Please help!

Thanks in advance.

Solution 1

Your problem is that a Response.Redirect sends a response back to your client (browser) and since the corresponding request was made by an AJAX panel the javascript code of your AJAX control needs to parse the servers response. A Response.Redirect sends a response that would normally make the browser navigate to a different page, but since it's an AJAX control the response is meaning less to your RadAjaxPanel.
You can solve this by using Server.Transfer to make a "redirect" on the server side. This means that the flow of control is passed from on page to another (maybe also the same page with rewritten parameters) without the browser needed for interaction.

Read some about it here: http://techahead.wordpress.com/2007/10/14/aspnet-servertransfer-vs-responseredirect/[^].

If you still have questions come back and leave a comment! (But please google for Server.Transfer first!)

Happy coding!

I am getting below error when using server.transfer---
Microsoft JScript runtime error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: Invalid path for child request 'http://defaultwebsite.aspx'. A virtual path is expected.

Please modify your question with the relevant source code especially the exact path that you call Server.Transfer with and drop a comment to this solution so I'll get notified when you're done with the editing of your question.

I am using path to my reports server, actually on my button click where i am doing redirect/transfer, it genegates pdf reports.

Please read my reply to your comment above and do what I requested. If you tried calling another website however that is not identical to the one running your application (virtual directory) then you're out of luck with using Server.Transfer. The only way to go then is to make the call to that website/webserver using HttpWebRequest, receive the result and pass that back to the client.

I put my button which cause redirect outside AjaxPanel.
Now works fine.
Thanks for help.
