  • In IIS7 there is a new setting maxAllowedContentLength (which is around 30 MB by default). For CD specific web.config we set the maxRequestLength property to 100MB, so we should also set this new setting to same value.

  • <configuration>

  • <system.web>

  • <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="102400" />

  • </system.web>

  • <system.webServer>

  • <security>

  • <requestFiltering>

  • <!-- maxAllowedContentLength is in bytes. -->

  • <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="104857600" />

  • </requestFiltering>
