You should tag this as ASP and/or Web-related

Have you tried using something else than "file length"?

And, I haven't any experience with ASP, but in doesn't C# for ASP come with an exception "handler", so you can print to screen the exeption-"string"?

1. Where are you stuck?
2. What does get stuck mean?
3. This is 2 questions, you should really have posted 2 separate questions.

Solution 1

You need to set up the web.config file to allow large files.

See - Setting up Web.config to allow uploading of large files by ASP .NET applications[^].

Solution 2

Modify the maxAllowedContentLength setting in the web.config like,

HTML

<system.webserver>
  <security>
    <requestfiltering>
      <requestlimits maxallowedcontentlength="2147483648" />
    </requestfiltering>
  </security>
</system.webserver>
