Download timeout after ~15 min

Hi all, I'm having a terrible time downloading a file from IIS5 when
the site is using .net 2.x.

Web page:
<html>
<body>
<a href="log.log"> dl log</a>
</body>
</html>
Where log.log is a 60MB log file.

I have tried various files, .wmv, .zip, and they the client gets a
message "The connection with the server was reset" after about 15 min
(900-960 sec)

Setting the "Connection timeout" lower or higher does not seem to
help.

Any ideas?

I do not think it relates to .NET

your link goes through IIS and not .NET framework because you are trying to
download file with extension .log.

I am not sure if anything can be tweaked at the IIS level but I suspect if
you have a proxy server between web server and your computer it's proxy's
fault.

I had wildcard application mappings set up, so .NET was handling
the .log file, and applying the timeout. Thanks for the help

Hi All, To download the files from the http or https server, we have used WebClient object. But, the problem is we cannot specify timeout in the WebClient object. So, using HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse the only way to do it ? or is there some other way with which we can specify timeout for WebClient object.

If I add the code for user to download the file (e.g. if(File.Exists(FILE_NAME)){......}), the ASP.NET will give the following timeout error: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. It seems that the download file code is executing before letting the previous code to finish. Even the message print code (message.Text="...";) is not executed.

Hi, I am using this code to download files on VS 2005. It downloads the file but waits until the timeout (which is why it is so short) to add the last 4 bytes or so. It always returns a WebException which most of the time is just feedback from the FTP server, so how do I tell if the download was successful/complete or not? Tim

Hello, I am trying to download a few files one after another from a remote server. Problem is that I don't know how to, or if I am able at all, set a time out for download. I don't want to time out whole script, just a part if file won't download in 2mins then skip to the next one. Previously, I had a Javascript implementation with AJAX, this time I thought of doing it in PHP since PHP has far better array functions, I don't have to do...

Hi! I want to use ASP to download big files using ADODB.STREAM. It works very fine with files smaller than 80 MB. On the Webserver I can see that memory allocation and the process w3wp is running. After some time (more or less 2 minutes) I get a response timeout. Here is the code:

I have a web site where we offer MP3 downloads (yes, they are legal!). I've written a PHP script using readfile() (or fpassthru()) that sends the file using HTTP headers (via various header() directives). The script launches the download fine and the download proceeds normally. However, after 20MB - 35MB of the download completes, the download suddenly completes even though the entire file wasn't download. (The download does not fail.)...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
