Limiting File upload size

[RFH Reseller: spire128]

Hi All

Here is the problem as I see it, please correct me if I am wrong,

By default in the machine.config the file upload size is about 4Mb and when u try and upload files larger that that Asp.Net will ethier just time out or throw an exception.

Okay I can live with the file size of 4Mb, as I am trying to allow my users to upload images so 4Mb limit is not a problem.

So I have a routine that resizes the image and reduces the file size of any image uploaded, so now for the problem,


My resize routine is server side code, and before it resizes the image Asp.Net trys to upload all of the file, so I run in the the file size and timout problem.

So can anyone point me to a solution, either client side, or server side, or an open source control, or any work around

Thanks

Hi Warren thanks for the info

Do u have the executionTimeout set higher than default in the machine.config

Do u have the executionTimeout set higher than default in the machine.config

If thats the setting that controls upload size....

(...I don't think it is, maxRequestLength seems more appropriate)
