Uploading Large Files

I'm using a pure ASP upload script to handle file uploading. We run IIS6 and
I'm aware of the AspMaxRequestEn tityAllowed variable in the metabase. I upped
this to allow the file size maximum and it was working for the past couple
months. Now all of a sudden in the past couple of days we are seeming to have
problems.

The upload works fine for anything up to around 2mb (or so it seems).

When uploading about 20mb worth (10x2mb files), I get the following error
(thrown from firefox). I tried changing Response.Expire s,
Server.ScriptTi meout, and the connection timeout setting for the website in
IIS.

Connection Interrupted
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try
again.

When uploading about 2-10mb worth of files, I get an error thrown by ASP.
The error typically just means that AspMaxRequestEn tityAllowed needs to be
increased, but since I've already increased it as high as it can go, I'm
really confused.

Request object error 'ASP 0101 : 80004005'
Unexpected error
/scripts/update/ShadowUploader. asp, line 58
The function returned |.

Line 58: strBinData = Request.BinaryR ead(iBytesCount )

" it was working for the past couple months."
If the code was working before, and no code changes have been made, then the problem must be something other than the code.

My thoughts exactly. I didn't necessarily say it was something in the code I
needed to fix. I'm looking for suggestions on anything that could be wrong.

I've already read that article, and many others I searched for off of Google.
I only ask for help when I can't already find it somewhere else.

I'm not using a component - this is a pure ASP file upload.

since the error message is coming from the request object, you're going to have to some debugging by testing uploads of different
types and sizes to better isolate and establish a repeatable cause of the error source.

Your previous testing of 2-10mb file sizes is a wide range, if the error is not consistently happening above one size perhaps it is
the type. otherwsie youi're faced with chasing the problem outside of ASP which is dependent on iis, memory etc.

I'm pretty well sure it's anything above ~6mb, which is just an odd figure,
since I have no limits set.

you may also want to try another component. if another works then you have a solution.

personally, for uploads and especially when they get large, I fall back to ASP.net because uploading is one of the few things
classic ASP just can't offer well by itself. Another option is a third party, registered component, which is a good alternative as
most webhosts have these freely available.

I'm using a pure ASP upload script. I've tried 3 other ones, all get the
same error. I also just used a third party upload component and got the same
error. I may look into ASP.NET, but only as a last resort. There must be a
solution to this, since it was working before :\

Thanks for taking the time to troubleshoot with me though.

My guess is that iBytesCount is not a chunk size but the total size right.
IOW, you are not chunking the data in but trying to read the whole lot in a
single buffer. OR am I wrong?

Hello, I have a page where i can upload binary file (using the HTML input type=file approach). This works fine for relatively small files (<6MB)) but when files get bigger (13MB) there is a problem. The code of the php file is based upon the article in http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/php/2000/09/15/php_mysql.html: uploading large binary files using more than one table and more trhan 1 row per file.

Hi For a CMS admin tool I would like to provide a possibility to upload large files to a directory on the webserver. As HTTP uploads are limited in file size and also not comfortable in handling, I thought of an FTP solution. Displaying a link to ftp://mydomain.com/mydirectory is easy but limited to browsers who can act as FTP clients, such as Internet Explorer.

Newbie ASP.NET question: Now that I've created an ASP.NET site, how to I get it to my hosting provider? I've developed sites with Dreamweaver MX in the past - with Dreamweaver, it's very easy. The ability to link to the remote site (via FTP) is built into the IDE and all you have to do is click upload. Does Visual Studio have a similar feature? How do most people deploy their sites to a remote server from Visual Studio?

Hi there, What's the better strategy for uploading large files trough webservices? I can use Dime/WS-Attachments but for files with over 5MB in size, maybe I got some timeout/refuse problems in my server. Is it a good idea upload the files in chucks? In this case, how can I control and validate the transfering, and ensure the security? As a matter of fact, I have to use standarts for EDI processes. Thanks in advanced.

If a user will upload large files via FTP protocol, must the user have an FTP client on his computer or is it possible to use a similar way to "http form" comunication? Or is there another way( besides FTP) how to upload large files to server? Thank you he help Lad.

MS won't seem to let me reply to my old post, so I created a new one. The error occurs in all browsers. It's definitely a server issue, not client. The server is not proxied in any way. I tried uploading the files on the server and experienced the same issues as I get on any other computer. Thanks in advance for your help. Dan
