Hello. I have made a page where users upload files. It works fine for small files. (1MB or less) but when uploading larger files, sudendly shows an error page.
My site is: http://www.lineacero.net/bases/pshop/login.asp you can register and upload a file.
I have been reading your forum, and found this similar of what I need, but in version 6.0 (build 673) is not shown. Hope you can help me out. I have been trying to get this to work but not success so far. thanks. http://www.asprunner.com/forums/index.php?...&hl=session

Carlos,

Thank you for your pront response.
It just quits uploading the file. The conexion here is very good, and no disconeting.

In the demo:

You can use, Admin, Admin to upload a large file, (Over 100MB) and you will get and error
"The conexion has been restarted, while the page was loading" Firefox
Internet Explorer:

This error may be due to a number of problems including:
Lost connectivity to the Internet.

The website is temporarily unavailable.

Unable to access the domain name server (DNS).

The domain name server (DNS) does not have an entry in the list for the domain of the website.

If this is an https (secure), click Tools, Internet Options, Advanced Options, and make sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled in the security section

I'm trying file uploads in a web form for the first time and having this same issue. I don't ever get an actual session timeout - the IE page just returns the generic http 500 error page. The page and the file upload work perfectly as long as the file is less than 1mb in size. I need for site visitors to be able to upload larger files.
I have already increased the timeout on the IIS side of things. I'm still using ASP Runner 5. If you get an answer to this issue please advise.
thank you.

Just letting you know I may have found the answer for my particular issue. I increased the AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed entry in the metabase.xml file for IIS and now larger files are working.
thanks

thanks!
I use a web hosting service, that does not allow to chance IIS settings like that. I dont have access to that section.
Any other way?
Thank you,
Carlosx

Carlosx,
you can talk to your web hosting support team in this regard. They might be willing to increase the limit for you though I doubt so.
The only workaround is to get a dedicated web server or VDS (virtual dedicated server) where you can edit metabase.xml.
