SSRS2008 Report SOAP OutOfMemoryException in IE8 - soap

Question

I have an MVC3 website that uses SOAP to run a reporting services report and this is then returned to the browser. The users have IE8 on their machines and all the reports run fine except for one particular report that is throwing an error. The report takes 3 parameters and returns a table with < 10 rows. It only throws the error in IE8 when the number of rows is > 0. If the number of rows = 0 then it will return the report with just the headings. The report runs fine in ReportManager and FireFox. I have searched the web and StackOverflow looking for an answer with no success. The problem is I am not 100% sure whether it is a SOAP or SSRS problem or even something else and was hoping for some guidance.

Answer 1

I have fixed this issue now and the problem was the date format of one of the parameters. Once i sorted this out the report ran fine in IE. Not sure why it would work in Firefox with the wrong format.
