Hello,

I am trying to upload large video into sql server through our asp.net application.( Using File uploader and Bytes concept)..

i created column type in sql server as varbinary(MAX); for video uploading. from database side we can fix using filestream concept for larger file.

BUT,

When i try to upload more than 4MB, i got error on chrome browser as Web page is not available. So, i came to know that we need to increase the size in web.config

so i increased size in web.config.

<system.web>

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="120" maxRequestLength=" 2147483647" />

</system.web>

Now, i was able to upload video within 2GB as httpRuntime maxReqeustLenth is 2GB (int)

So, My requirement want to upload More than 2GM means how can i achieve ?

Help needed.

Thanks

1.The default value for this config setting is 4096 in KB, that means 4MB, like you can see in MSDN[^]

2.So you have to increase this value, in your config file, to maximum allowed, but you should have a look also in the IIS constrains: requestLimits element for requestFiltering in IIS[^]

3.The maximum value for maxRequestLength is 2147483647 in KB that means 2TB (Terra Bytes) and not 2MB. The problem is that this setting is affected from IIS settings like I said in my 2nd point, so you should increase also some IIS related configurations.
