File Upload Error with accurate web config settings 

I get an error message when trying to upload files over 22mb or so. This occurs in the DNN file manager and various modules. The web config file is set properly to handle files well above this size. However, the error still occurs. Any thoughts on what is going on?

Re: File Upload Error with accurate web config settings 

there are 2 settings you need, the maxRequestLength (which you appear to have), and the executionTimeout (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e1f13641.aspx) - it's the time an asp.net page will run for before timing out, i suspect this is your issue.

Re: File Upload Error with accurate web config settings 

Most likely, the upload is taking so long to transfer, IIS times-out.

Google "Large File Upload Timeout ASP.Net"
This is the first one I get: http://weblogs.asp.net/mhawley/archive/2004/05/11/129824.aspx  has some good info.

I have an HTTPHandler that solved this issue for .Net 1.1, however I've not yet updated for .Net 2.0.  I might not, as there are some other options available, which I have yet to fully explore:


I've seen several Flash upload controls which might solve this IIS issue.
I've seen at least 2 tutorials on making upload controls in Silverlight.
There are dozens of commmercial products available to handle this as well.

I do not know why, after all these years, Microsoft has yet to add something to IIS or .Net to handle this  (Unless there is something I'm no read-up-on?).
