Hi,
Some time ago I developed simple document management system, that is storing files into MS SQL database.
It was working fine, but recently users reported that they cannot upload some files. When it happens they get the following error:
Error occurred while initializing the upload component
I tried to solve that issue but it doesn't look to be simple.
Has anyone experienced this? If so, and solved somehow, please let me know, I will appreciate it very much.
I use ASP/VBScript Upload
Thank you in advance
Best regards
Norbert

I've found the reason of the problem. It is Windows 2003 server, IIS 6 and default settings. By default IIS6 lets you upload file with max 200 kB. Should you want to upload more - you need to change metabase.xml
If windows is installed to c:\winnt, you should look for
start iis console and change settings for modyfing Metabase data
find c:\winnt\system32\inetsrv\Metabase.xml
modify AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed (it is in bytes) in that file
restart iis
Hope it can help someone.
Best regards
Norbert
