    As always I search before I post and I saw a similar problem with no resolution. I am running DNN3 as my companies intranet site mainly to host a variety of PDF files for forms and PDF/WMV files for training purposes. Until now everything has gone fairly smoothly. I now need to upload some rather large document files and have made the switch in my web.cfg files to increase the max size to 32 megabyte. When i upload anything over 8 meg I get what appears to be an invalid DNS entry page loading. I have increased the size and restarted IIS several times to no avail. I know that I will have a business need to go over even my 32 meg limit I am setting now . What am I doing wrong?


Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance. I must say the support I have gotten from the DNN community as a whole has been unparalled compared to the many expensive software packages I have purchased in the past. DNN has made me realize that not only is open source a much cheaper alternative than purchased products but the reliabilty and functionality does not need to take a hit. My thanks to the development team as well!

in your web.config there is a size limit of 8 MB (in kByte):

    <httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" maxRequestLength="8192" requestLengthDiskThreshold="8192" />

I have already increased this

<!-- allow large file uploads -->

    <httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="True" maxRequestLength="32768" />

is the actual line of code that I changed from 8 meg to 32 meg. I am thinking I am missing something. I do not have that other piece of code in my web.config file though.

You may also need to extend the execution timeout, as the script will time out after 90 seconds (which is the default) e.g.

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="180" useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="True" maxRequestLength="32768" />

this will increase the timeout to 180 seconds. The DNS error message youre getting is probably the 'friendly' error message that IE shows. To see the real error (i.e. a script timeout message), in internet explorer go to tools->internet options, click the 'advanced' tab. Find the 'show friendly http error messages' checkbox and uncheck it.

    I appreciate the fast response!. That feature, was indeed checked, I unchecked it and tried again with the same problem. (I can upload smaller files just fine).

As far as increasing the timeout.  I tried it , but had a strong feeling that it was not  going to help, as I am getting the error page instantly with not even a 1 second delay.
As I expected I got the same message almost every time I tried. With one exception once I got a completly white screen .
Should I be doing more than saving the web.config file and restarting IIS???
