Asp.net: Increase the maximum upload file size

In this article I am going to explain how to Increase the maximum upload file size in Asp.net.

Description:

Default maximum size to upload file is 4 MB (4096KB) and execution time is 110 seconds. if we are uploading files larger than 4 MB we get an error “Maximum request length exceeded.”

Implementation:

Add the below given line in web.config of project/website.

<system.web>

   <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="51200" executionTimeout="9999" />

</system.web>

MaxRequestLength: Maximum file upload size. Here file upload size is increases to 50 MB.

 1 MB = 1024 KB and 50*1024 = 51200

ExcutionTimeout : Maximum number of seconds taken by page to upload. If process is not completed in given seconds then it will be terminated.
