I'm trying to upload a WMV file through file manager, it's about 70MB, but whenever uploading to around 75%, the site refresh itself, and then up to 75%, it throws me error saying "the connection has been reset" (Google Chrome), here is my web.config setting:

<httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="false" maxRequestLength="102400" requestLengthDiskThreshold="8192" executionTimeout="600" requestValidationMode="2.0" />

<system.webServer>
      <security>
        <requestFiltering>
          <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="300000000" />
        </requestFiltering>
        <!-- Enable IIS Windows authentication for the login page -->
        <authentication>
          <windowsAuthentication enabled="true" />
          <anonymousAuthentication enabled="false" />
        </authentication>
      </security>
    </system.webServer>

Any idea I can get this working?

Cheers

Grace

Grace,

try to set

< httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="false" maxRequestLength="102400" requestLengthDiskThreshold="102400" executionTimeout="600" requestValidationMode="2.0" / >

Anyway, this would allow large file Uploads to everyone who may upload files (forum users...?). I recommend using Oliver Hine's upload module from http://www.oliverhine.com.

Best wishes
Michael

Grace,

If you change that value, all users will be able to upload files up to that size. I'd manually upload the file via FTP and bypass the file manager.

Thanks for your reply Mark, the client prefers this way, and it's an intranet site, any different for it if you know?

 Cheers

I would strongly suggest you look at a custom uploader type module if you are going to regularly upload files of that size.  

The internal dnn uploader has never really been great at large files - look at a module that does flash or async upload maybe.
