    Media File Size Limit

    I have looked through the various forum posts about having to add settings to the web.config to alter the requestlimits. However, the don't seem to help me. I am running Umbraco 7.0.4 on IIS8 and I am trying to upload an 8MB PDF. I immediately get an unhelpful error message saying:

    Server error: Contact administrator, see log for full details. undefined

    Nothing seems to be added to the logs. 

    Does anyone know what to do here?

    Hi Robert

    Could you please share what your looks like? Are you certain you have set it to a proper amount? and have you added the timeout as well?

    I have added the following:

     

     <system.web>
        <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="204800" executionTimeout="99999" />
    </system.web>
    <system.webServer>
        <security>
            <requestFiltering>
                <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="204800000"/>
            </requestFiltering>
        </security>
    </system.webServer>

    Argh, just realised the code in my first post did not make it. But it suggested what you have posted above yourself.

    Damn markdown editor! :)

    Jan,

    Thanks for the response. The code above worked.. Although I'm a little embarrased to admit it... I think I was adding these settings in the wrong place.....

    Sorry for wasting your time!
