Hi

I was just wondering if there is a set limit to the size of a file that can
be put into a posting as an attachment. A client is trying to upload a 20mb
..xls file which is causing the upload process to fail (without any errors).
If there is a default limit can this be increased to accommodate larger file
sizes.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Joseph,

first of all: MCMS is not very good in dealing with such big attachments.
The customer should store such files on the file system rather than in MCMS
if possible.

Beside that: there is an ASP.NET upload limit that can be configured in the
web.config which might affect him.
He needs to adjust this in the web.config.

Here is a sample:

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="300"
maxRequestLength="10240"
..../>

Here the timeout is set to 300 seconds and the upload size is set to 10240
kb = 10 MB.

Cheers,
Stefan.
