When trying to install a module I am getting this error:

Error An error has occurred.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.PageLoadException: Maximum request length exceeded. ---> System.Web.HttpException: Maximum request length exceeded. at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetEntireRawContent() at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetMultipartContent() at System.Web.HttpRequest.FillInFormCollection() at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_Form() at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_HasForm() at System.Web.UI.Page.GetCollectionBasedOnMethod(Boolean dontReturnNull) at System.Web.UI.Page.DeterminePostBackMode() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- 

This error shows up right after clicking next from the package installer  screen where I browse for the file. I have installed this particular module on various other sites without an issue. I am on 5.6.5 of DNN. Any thoughts?

I have encounter this issue too.
It is the file path of your package installer too long cause this problem.
Did you put the installer package in a folder whose directory is too deep? Or the file name of your package is too long?

then move your package to a folder of smaller depth (eg, on desktop or a root directory on a disk ) or rename you package to a shorter name. Try again.

How large a file is the module package zip that you are trying to install? If it is large (8 MB is the default) you will need to increase the value for the maxRequestLength attribute in the site's web.config's <httpRuntime . . . ./> node. The value is in kilobytes.

I re downloaded the module and it seemed to work... must have been a corrupt file... not sure how that happened... However, Thanks for the tips. I will keep these with my notes in case this happens again.
