Error serialization in Grid Control using JSON

[André Secco]

Hello,

I'm in trouble with the serialization of my data in my Grid Control, I get the following message: "Error during serialization or deserialization using JSON JavaScriptSerializer. The size of the string exceeds the value set in maxJsonLength property".

I've seen some alternatives in forum, but nothing help me.
I do not want paging in my grid and I have to have all the data on the screen to be analyzed.
I have to render it without being in Json? Or you have another alternative?

I already try input the config in web.config (But not working):

<system.web.extensions>
  <scripting>
    <webServices>
      <jsonSerialization maxJsonLength="50000000"/>
    </webServices>
  </scripting>
</system.web.extensions>

I researched on the internet and saw that can happen because web.config setting will be ignored because you're using an internal instance of the JavaScriptSerializer.

In the forums it is recommended to do the following (Adding MaxJsonLength property):

protected override JsonResult Json(object data, string contentType, System.Text.Encoding contentEncoding, JsonRequestBehavior behavior)
{
    return new JsonResult()
    {
        Data = data,
        ContentType = contentType,
        ContentEncoding = contentEncoding,
        JsonRequestBehavior = behavior,
        MaxJsonLength = Int32.MaxValue
    };
}

As the Grid component of Syncfusion is compiled, I have no way to access and make a override. Any idea how to solve (without paging)?

Hi André, 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

In our latest MVC grid, we have rendered all the html elements in client side and we have passed the data to the control from server side to client side as Json data by serializing it.
