File size limit in the Shared Files Module?

Is there a size limit on files being uploaded to the Shared Files module? I'm trying to use the upload facility to put some sizeable MP3's in Shared Files, and getting an exception that says the request length limit was exceeded...

Thanks!

Duane

hmmmm... I think this is a hosting issue (using Arvixe); getting an exception that says the maximum request size has been exceeded. I'll be getting in touch with them Monday.

Hi Duane,

File size limits are mainly determined by configuration, see the article Supporting Large File Uploads. Note that how the limits are configured differs if using Full Trust or Medium Trust. I think Arvixe is Full Trust, but whether NeatUpload is used will depend on whether you used the default Web.config file or the Web.fulltrust.config file. The later  can only be used in Full Trust and is needed to enable NeatUpload.

There "can" be limits set deeper down by the web host but most likely it is just the default limits kicking in and you can set a higher size limit.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Thank you, Joe! I'll have a gander at that article. I'm using the default web.config; you're right, Arvixe is full trust.

Best!
