Response Buffer Limit Exceeded

Solution 1:

I know this is way late, but for anyone else who encounters this problem: If you are using a loop of some kind (in my case, a Do-While) to display the data, make sure that you are moving to the next record (in my case, a rs.MoveNext).

Solution 2:

Here is what a Microsoft support page says about this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/944886/error-message-when-you-use-the-response-binarywrite-method-in-iis-6-an.

But it’s easier in the GUI:

• In Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, click on ASP.
• Change Behavior > Limits Properties > Response Buffering Limit from 4 MB to 64 MB.
• Apply and restart.

Solution 3:

The reason this is happening is because buffering is turned on by default, and IIS 6 cannot handle the large response.

In Classic ASP, at the top of your page, after <%@Language="VBScript"%> add: <%Response.Buffer = False%>

In ASP.NET, you would add Buffer="False" to your Page directive. For example: <%@Page Language="C#" Buffer="False"%>

Solution 4:

I faced the same kind of issue, my IIS version is 8.5. Increased the Response Buffering Limit under the ASP -> Limit Properties solved the issue.

1. In IIS 8.5, select your project, you can see the options in the right hand side. In that under the IIS, you can see the ASP option.

2. In the option window increase the Response Buffering Limit to 40194304 (approximately 40 MB) .

3. Navigate away from the option, in the right hand side top you can see the Actions menu, Select Apply. It solved my problem.
