I am using Visual Studio 2010/ASP.NET/C-Sharp website.
I basically had an ASP.NET FileUpload control, for which I needed to cater the exception thrown for the following message:-
Maximum request length exceeded.
The limitations are that I need to just restrict the user to upload one file in all because I have save the other details from some text-boxes into DB.
The maximum file size setting is set in the web.config as follows:-
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="41943040"/>
</requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>
And
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="40960" requestValidationMode="2.0" />
</system.web>
So therefore I searched many solutions, to name then as follows:-
1. Usage Global.asax with validating file size in "Application_BeginRequest()", but it has not resolved my issue and it crashes at the Redirect when file size is greater and a redirect to Error Page is not working.
2. Usage of AjaxFileUpload instead of ASP.NET FileUpload control, this is again crashes at the checking of file size is greater than maximum size allowed in Web.config.
Secondly I have to restrict that in total the user can just upload one single file, not more than one file, so using the AjaxFileUpload it is not working in my condition, since I have to upload a single document and save the other details in some text-boxes
related to that file.
Thirdly when the file size exceeds the limit, i.e. 40MB, then the AjaxFileUpload just gets red colour, no message is shown.
I want to find out that how can I accomplish my requirements, since I am stuck for this since a couple of days.
Kindly help me in this regards as early as possible.
Found few of them useful, but could not accomplish the requirements on their basis:-
