I have a repeater control which is inside Update Pannel this update pannel contains Asynchronous postBack triggers.this repeater shows the files from certain folder.i have item commends for download and delete files.in the update pannel control i called the asynchronous trigger for delete files because i wanted to update repeated withot postback its working fine.but when i tried to download the file its not working the fallowing is the code its working for when i place a button and call the same method

C#

public void DownloadFile(string filePath)
        {
            if (File.Exists(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(filePath)))

            {

              string fileName = Path.GetFileName(filePath);
                    Response.ClearHeaders();
                    Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
                    Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="+fileName);
                    Response.TransmitFile(@"~\Uploads\"+fileName);
                    //Response.End();
                    HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest();


}

The above code is working from the button which is outside the repeater but it is not working for the linkbutton which is in repeater

Yes. It will not work inside updatepanel. You will have to add a postback trigger inside updatepanel. specify your repeater's ID controlID. For example something like this:

ASP.NET

<asp:updatepanel id="YourUpdatePanel" runat="server">
 
<triggers><asp:postbacktrigger controlid="YourRepeaterControlID" /></triggers>
 
<contenttemplate>
<!--
Your Repeater Control etc...
 -->
</contenttemplate>
 
</asp:updatepanel>

I used the same like above but instead of <asp:postbacktrigger i used asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger
my code is like below
<asp:UpdatePanel runat="server" ID="upFiles" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<contenttemplate>
Repeater control

<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="rptUploadedFiles" />
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnRefreshFileList" />

</Triggers>

Replace <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="rptUploadedFiles" /> with
<asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID="rptUploadedFiles" />

It's the only way you can make it work.
