Ошибка запроса к серверу parsererror syntaxerror unexpected end of json input

I can’t say for sure what the problem is. Could be some bad character, could be the spaces you have left at the beginning and at the end, no idea.

Anyway, you shouldn’t hardcode your JSON as strings as you have done. Instead the proper way to send JSON data to the server is to use a JSON serializer:

data: JSON.stringify({ name : "AA" }),

Now on the server also make sure that you have the proper view model expecting to receive this input:

public class UserViewModel
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

and the corresponding action:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult SaveProduct(UserViewModel model)
{
    ...
}

Now there’s one more thing. You have specified dataType: 'json'. This means that you expect that the server will return a JSON result. The controller action must return JSON. If your controller action returns a view this could explain the error you are getting. It’s when jQuery attempts to parse the response from the server:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult SaveProduct(UserViewModel model)
{
    ...
    return Json(new { Foo = "bar" });
}

This being said, in most cases, usually you don’t need to set the dataType property when making AJAX request to an ASP.NET MVC controller action. The reason for this is because when you return some specific ActionResult (such as a ViewResult or a JsonResult), the framework will automatically set the correct Content-Type response HTTP header. jQuery will then use this header to parse the response and feed it as parameter to the success callback already parsed.

I suspect that the problem you are having here is that your server didn’t return valid JSON. It either returned some ViewResult or a PartialViewResult, or you tried to manually craft some broken JSON in your controller action (which obviously you should never be doing but using the JsonResult instead).

One more thing that I just noticed:

async: false,

Please, avoid setting this attribute to false. If you set this attribute to false you are are freezing the client browser during the entire execution of the request. You could just make a normal request in this case. If you want to use AJAX, start thinking in terms of asynchronous events and callbacks.

Ситуация: вы пишете скрипт, в котором объявляете новые функции или используете уже встроенные. Вы уверены, что всё правильно, потому что делали так сотни раз в других проектах, но при запуске кода появляется такая ошибка:

❌ Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input

Что это значит: браузер ждёт от вас или от кода продолжения ввода параметров или новых значений, но не находит их и падает с ошибкой.

Когда встречается: чаще всего это значит, что вы где-то потеряли закрывающие скобки. Вторая ситуация, более редкая — вы обрабатываете JSON-запрос и вам просто не приходят нужные данные (хотя должны бы). О том, что такое JSON-запросы и ответы, будет в отдельной статье — тема слишком большая и интересная для короткого ответа. Сейчас остановимся на первом варианте.

Чтобы отловить и исправить эту ошибку, вам нужно посчитать и сравнить количество открытых и закрытых скобок в программе — как круглых (), так и фигурных {}. Скорее всего, вам не хватает и того, и другого (и точки с запятой после них).

Проще всего такую ошибку найти простым форматированием кода: когда все вложенные команды и параметры сдвигаются вправо табуляцией или пробелами. В этом случае легко найти разрыв в получившейся лесенке кода и добавить туда нужные скобки. Смотрите сами:

$(function () {
  $("#mewlyDiagnosed").hover(function () {
    $("#mewlyDiagnosed").animate({ 'height': '237px', 'top': "-75px" });
  }, function () {
    $("#mewlyDiagnosed").animate({ 'height': '162px', 'top': "0px" });
  });

Может показаться, что всё в порядке, но вот как выглядит этот код после форматирования:

$(function () {
  $("#mewlyDiagnosed").hover(function () {
    $("#mewlyDiagnosed").animate({ 'height': '237px', 'top': "-75px" });
  }, function () {
    $("#mewlyDiagnosed").animate({ 'height': '162px', 'top': "0px" });
  });

Сразу видно, что в конце скрипта не хватает строки с )}; — если их не поставить, браузер будет ждать продолжения ввода параметров вызова функции, не дождётся их и выдаст ошибку Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input

Попробуйте сами. Найдите ошибку в этом коде:

$(function() {

  // Script to select all checkboxes

  $state.on('change', function(ev) {

    var $chcks = $("#example tbody input[type='checkbox']");

    if($state.is(':checked')) {

      $chcks.prop('checked', true).trigger('change');

    }else {

      $chcks.prop('checked', false).trigger('change');

  });

A common error encountered by JavaScript programmers is the Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input. This is usually observed when the coder is trying to convert a string into a JSON Object.

We will try to understand the cause of this error and how it can be solved. Let us look at an example.

Error Code:

<html><head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $("button").click(function(){
	  var jsondata = [''];
	  var jsonarray = JSON.parse(jsondata);
	  $.each(jsonarray, function(i, field){
		  $("div").append(field + " ");
      });
  });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button>Get data</button>
<div></div>
</body></html>

Output:

We can observe here that the code raises the Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input.

In the program given above, the variable jsondata is assigned an empty string. In the next line, this variable is passed as an argument to the JSON.parse() method for parsing it. during parsing, it is converted into an empty string. So the end of the string is reached before parsing any possible content of the JSON text.

Let us look at the correct code.

Correct Code:

<html><head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $("button").click(function(){
	  var jsondata = ['{"Site":"Stechies", "Code":"Jquery"}'];
	  var jsonarray = JSON.parse(jsondata);
	  $.each(jsonarray, function(i, field){
		  $("div").append(field + " ");
      });
  });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button>Get data</button>
<div></div>
</body></html>

Here, you can see that the variable jsondata is assigned data in the form of key-value pairs — «Site»: «Stechies», «Code»: «Jquery». So, while parsing using the JSON.parse() method, it is not converted into an empty string and hence the Uncaught SyntaxError is avoided.
