Classic Asp - Response Object Error 'Asp 0251 80004005' Response Buffer Limit Exceeded

Introduction:

Here I will explain how to solve the problem of “HTTP 500 or response object error 'asp 0251 : 80004005' response buffer limit exceeded” in classic asp. This response buffer limit exceeded error will occur in asp whenever our resultant data exceeds default asp buffer size 4 MB. To solve this problem we need to increase asp buffer limit in iis or clear the asp buffer for every record once returned in classic asp.

Description:

In previous posts I explained convert string to lower case, upper case and title case in asp.net, jQuery send receive json object from webservice methods, Asp.net mvc complete project with database, download multiple files as zip folder in asp.net and many articles relating to solve errors in asp.net, SQL Server, IIS, etc. Now I will explain how to solve the problem of “response object error 'asp 0251 : 80004005' response buffer limit exceeded” in classic asp.

In one classic asp page we tried to get last 10 years data whenever we executed code everything working fine but result not showing when we check it’s showing “response object error 'asp 0251 80004005' response buffer limit exceeded” script error in asp page. After some research we found this problem occurring because of our resultant data exceeds asp default buffer size 4MB. To fix this problem we have different options those are

Method 1:

To fix this problem please add “<%Response.Buffer = False%>” in asp page after this line <%@Language="VBScript"%> like as shown below

<%@Language="VBScript"%> <%Response.Buffer = False%>

In case if it not fixed your problem check second method

Method 2:

Open IIS manager for that Go to start à search for inetmgr and open IIS manager once it opens IIS select your application à Right side click on ASP like as shown below

Now double click ASP properties it will open new properties window in that change Response buffering limit like as shown below

I hope it solves your asp response buffer limit exceed problem in case if it is not solved check another method to fix this classic asp response buffer limit exceed

Method 3:

To fix this problem add “response.flush” statement at the end of loop moveNext. Once we get record details from database it will flush previous response before we go for another record that would be like as shown below

do while not rsTest.eof // Code to Execute rsTest.moveNext response.flush loop

I hope it helps you to fix your problem. Happy Coding……
