Hi,

I want to upload files in DNN.
What is the largest size DNN allow you to do by default?
How to change this?

Regards, Ton Hermes

Default DNN configuration has a limit of 8MB (8124 K).

This is configured by the maxRequestSize in the httpRuntime node of the web.config.  You can modify those values to update the max file size.

You also need to add a large executionTimeout value, so that it does not time out and stop half way through.  This is what I use to set a 100mb limit:

<httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" maxRequestLength="102400" requestLengthDiskThreshold="8192" executionTimeout="50000" />
