[ Post a follow-up to this message ]

Hi Alon,

this needs to be adjusted in the web.config of your project:
<httpRuntime executionTimeout="300"
maxRequestLength="10240"
..>

maxRequestLength is the size in KB (sample above is 10 MB). exeutionTimeout
is the amount of time the upload can take (300 seconds in the sample above).

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Alon,

is this a "page not found" or "dns error or host not found" error?
Please verify.

Thanks,
Stefan.

hi stefan

ive tried several things but i still get the : "Cannot find server or
DNS Error"

i tried :

1) setting the httpRuntime in the project web.config
2) setting the AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed for the ResUpload,SDUpload and
CMS directories in the metabase.xml

nothing helped. i still can't upload some files.

bye,
alon mayaffit

Hi Stefan
i have fount a solution in the KB article at :
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295626/EN-US/

the change should be done in th emachine.config file (to the
maxRequestLength attribute of the httpRuntime node)

there is a nice collection of articles at :
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...cms2001&sid=120

(i'm sure you probably wrote half of them but.....  )

thanks fot your help,
alon mayaffit

Hi Alon,

the "cannot find server" is a client side error message.
You cannot fix client side errors with server side settings. (makes sense?)

Usually this is the following IE bug:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=821814

If you have all the latest IE security fixes installed, then this fix is
installed but not active.
To activate it you need to follow the hints at the bottom of the following
article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=831167

You should take a netmon trace to see if there is a error message sent from
the server which is not correctly interpreted by the browser or if there is
a different problem.

Cheers,
Stefan.

This setting is identical to the setting I outlined below.
Only that you set it in the machine.config and I asked you to set it in the
web.config.
There is no difference - if you updated the right web.config.

Cheers,
Stefan.
