Maximum request length exceeded.

Question

I am getting the error Maximum request length exceeded when I am trying to upload a video in my site.

How do I fix this?

Answer 1

If you can't update configuration files but control the code that handles file uploads use HttpContext.Current.Request.GetBufferlessInputStream(true).

The true value for disableMaxRequestLength parameter tells the framework to ignore configured request limits.
