binary form upload

I have a web site that is using galaxyformupload component to process binary
part of the form for file upload. That component was working properly on
IIS 5.0 until the site was moved to IIS 6.0 and windows 2k3 server. Now is
the problem in that when trying to upload file, if the file is greater then
200+ kb, upload component fails when I try to initialize it.

I was searchuing for an answer to this problem and some people suggested
that the problem is in maximum size of the request body that is limited
somewhere for the IIS, but only parameter I could find is maximum request
HEADER, and changing it doesn't help

Can you please help me with that one. Thanks!

Hi Daniel,

There are two settings:

MaxRequestEntityAllowed, which controls the amount of entity allowed in
*any* request to IIS 6. By default, this is documented to be 4GB (although
I thought it was 2GB. This might be a doc error.) See
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/iissdk/iis/ref_mb_maxrequestentityallowed.asp" target="_blank">http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/iissd...is/ref_</a>

AspMaxRequestEntityAlloed, which controls the amount of entity allowed in a
request to ASP. By default, this is about 200K. See
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/iissdk/iis/ref_mb_aspmaxrequestentityallowed.asp" target="_blank">http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/iissd...is/ref_</a>

If you make a request to an ASP page, the lower of the two above settings
applies. Based on the behavior you are seeing, it sounds like you are
POSTing to an ASP page, and you are running into AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed.

I hope that this helps,
