Do you really want to create the GridView manually? I strongly doubt that. Instead add it on the aspx and make it visible in btnerror_Click. — Tim Schmelter

Do you really want to create the GridView manually? I strongly doubt that. Instead add it declaratively to the aspx-page and make it visible in btnerror_Click.

Don't create the control dynamically and register the event handler in RowDataBound but in RowCreated which is triggered on every postback (as opposed to RowDataBound):

void gv_RowCreated(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        ImageButton btnUpdate = new ImageButton();
        btnUpdate.Click += btnUpdate_Click;
        TableCell tc = new TableCell();

        tc.Controls.Add(btnUpdate);
        e.Row.Cells.Add(tc);
    }
}

void gv_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {    
        ImageButton btnUpdate = (ImageButton)e.Row.FindControls("btnupdate") 
        btnUpdate.ID = "btnupdate";
        btnUpdate.ImageUrl = "~/SmartAdmin/Images/update.png";
        btnUpdate.ToolTip = "Click Update";
        btnUpdate.CommandName = "update";
    }
}

So create it in RowCreated but initialize it in RowDataBound where you can also access the datasource (if required).

Also note that you should DataBind the GridView only if(!IsPostBack) not on every postback (if that's the case). So add this check where you assign the datasource.

You need to add function for click event

btnUpdate.Click += btnUpdate_Click;

protected void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

}
