If it isn't set high enough it will prevent you from uploading files.</p> <p><strong>Solution:</strong></p> <p>Change the ASPMaxRequestEntityAllowed to 1073741824 in the metabase.xml file (usually located in c:\windows\system32\inetsrv). To edit this while IIS is running, you may have to go into IIS, right-click on the computer name, and check the "Enable Direct Metabase Edit" box.</p> <p>In IIS 7, navigate to the website, click on the ASP icon, and then change the Limit Property setting to the appropriate value.</p> <p><strong>Related:</strong></p> <p><p>To view very large files, you may need to <a href="http://www.fogcreek.com/FogBugz/kb/errors/ResponseBufferLimitExceed.html" rel="nofollow">increase the Response limit</a>.<br /></p>
