Strange exception when refreshing report

[ATeam]

Hello,

after refreshing a telerik report in our silverlight application, we get the error message, as shown in the attachment. We have tested if the exception occurs in the methods, which should deliver the data for the report, but that is not the reason. There no exception happened.

The exception message tells us, to look into the InnerException, but  I don't know how I should do this, cause the debugger didn't stop anywhere to read the InnerException.

Additionally I assigned a method to the BindingValidationError event, but the method isn't executed, when the exception occured.

So my question is, how can I get the InnerException or even better, how can i prevent this exception?

best regards

Hi Dominik Fürst,

The exception thrown in the viewer is a generic one and it might be due to various reasons.

In order to get more information about the actual problem try the following:

• show the Output window in Visual Studio and check whether there is an exception when you're running your application in debug mode.
• access the .svc file directly in your browser to see if it reports any problems.
• enable the CLR exceptions from Debug --> Exceptions menu in Visual Studio and run your project in debug.

Best wishes,

Hi Steve,

let me explain our Problem in more detail:
We want to show a telerik report in a silverlight application. This Report works well if we open the App the first time. The report shows correctly and we are able to refresh the data which should be displayed.
The Problem is, that after I had the Report open, do nothing and just wait about 30 seconds and then click refresh I got the exception. If I restart the App, the report is displayed correctly without exception. Furthermore this only happens on the production system.

When we try to remote debug the application, we recognize, that after the exception occoured , we don't stop anymore at the breakpoint in the code File which is executed on the webserver. We don't get any information from the output window or some kind of CLR Exception.

I think this could be some kind of session problem, but in our web.config we have set timeout="60000" of the sessionState. If also looked in the IIS Log Files but there is also nothing to find.
It seems that the problem occours between the our client code files (Silverlight) and the server code files, but between there is only the the "Telerik.Reporting.Service.ReportService" - WCF Service and I have no chance to get some more information where the problem exactly occours.

Is there a possibility to get more information from the service?

Kind Regards
Dom

Hello Dominik,

Try setting the following attributes of the service basicHttpBinding to higher values: maxReceivedMessageSize, maxBufferSize, maxBufferPoolSize, receiveTimeout, sendTimeout, openTimeout and closeTimeout and let us know how it goes.

Kind regards,

Hi Steve,

I increased the Values for receiveTimeout, sendTimeout, openTimeout and closeTimeout  to 10 Minutes and for maxReceivedMessageSize, maxBufferSize, maxBufferPoolSize to 2147483647 for the basicHttpBinding, but that doesn't help.

I've also tried to increase the same values for the webHttpBindigng, but the problem still exists!

Have you some more ideas?

Kind Regards,
Dom

Hi Dominik,

Unfortunately we're out of ideas on this one. We've read the whole thread once again and believe that there must be something specific to your server that causes this. You can verify it by hosting your app in IIS on other machines including your dev machine. If this is a problem related to the WCF service, there should be others reporting the problem on the net.
