Telerik.Web.UI.ParseException - Digit expected

[Amy]

Anyone know what causes this error?  I've never seen this one before.

Here's the stack trace:

System.Web.HttpUnhandledException: Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown. ---> Digit expected (at index 81)
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
   at System.Web.UI.Page.HandleError(Exception e)

   at System.Web.HttpApplication.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute()
   at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)

We are using version 2011.2.712.35 of the Telerk.Web.UI DLL.  Our web application is ASP.NET/VB.NET.

I did a google search on this error but was not able to find anything.

Thanks,

Hi Amy,

We are not aware of such error with RadControls and in the provided call stack there no execution of RadControls' methods. Could you please provide more detailed information on the subject? A sample project reproducing the problem will be of great help solving case.

In addition, you can find a guidance on how to isolate an issue in the following blog post:

Now that I have just purchased the license, I too have a similar issue !!

Basically, my application throws the error when rebinding a radgrid after having changing the culture to Portuguese. The application calls the NeedDataSource and formats the numbers within the resulting datatable (as I would expect), but then it all goes AWOL.

For information to you Telerik boffins, the dump i get is:

Am not sure if this will help in your investigations, but worth a try !

Hi Paul,

Could you please open a formal support ticket and provide a sample fully runnable project reproducing the problem so we can examine and debug it locally?

Kind regards,
Dobromir

[Paul]

Just for information ..... I did create a separate ticket for something different, but I believe that the 2 have something in common.

Ticket ID 455195 actually helped to resolve this issue !!!!

[Willem]

I have the exact same problem. Has this been solved?

[Marin]

Hi Willem,

 The previous issue was for a specific scenario where a custom defined expression contained the comma symbol "," which can be interpreted as both a decimal separator in some cultures as well a arguments delimiter for the parameters of a function. This was generating the parser error.
You should check whether you have such kind of expressions that can be interpreted in a different way according to the current culture settings of your application.

Best wishes,
Marin
