Upload Large Files

Upload Large Files

By default, ASP.NET doesn’t allow you to upload files bigger than 4MB to the server. You can fix this by overriding the default value of 4MB in the web.config file.

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="420"  maxRequestLength="40960" />

You need to specify the maxRequestLength attribute value in kilobytes, not bytes or megabytes.
