    The server is returning sEcho as 0? Sounds like an issue with the server not returning the passed in value then?

    Does your server's error log say what the passed in URL is?

    i cant say if its an error. as the tables still are rendered fine at my networkconnection. but on client side there is a setting blocking rendering the data with the long url ... but also there secho is 0. where do i have to look at my provider? i dont know where to find the error log...

    What I suspect is happening is that the GET URL is too long for how the server is configured and it is thus rejecting it. What I would suggest is using POST rather than GET: http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/server_side/post.html (or you can try the 1.8.3.dev nightly: http://datatables.net/download , which includes a new initialisation parameter called sServerMethod which you can set to POST).
