Buttons not appearing for server side datatable

azulahime

I created a datatable that's using server side processing. It's working. However, when the data loads, the buttons for exporting files do not show up on the datatable. I know that the problem is not with the button versions that I'm using because on another page, I have a client side datatable and when data is loaded on that table, the buttons appear.

Below is the code that i'm using right now. Can someone provide me with some insight on how to solve this? Thanks!

    var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
            "initComplete": function(settings, json) {
              table.buttons().container()
              .appendTo( $('div.column.is-half', table.table().container()).eq(0) );
              alert( 'All Data has been loaded into the table successfully' );
            },
            scrollX: true,
            lengthChange: false,
            "pageLength":5000, 
            buttons: [ 'excel' ],
            serverSide: true,
                    sAjaxSource: "http://127.0.0.1:8000/sctagging/materialtaggingdata/",  // new url
            columns: columndata,

          } );
