Find the following on line 39 of outputFile.asp and increase the 80000 to the number of bytes you want to allow:
If allowFile and byteCount <= 80000 Then

Hmm. I was afraid of that. I figured that was the line and had tried to up it but I'm still getting an error. The test file I'm working with is just under 275,000 bytes. I changed the line above to 300000. But it gets maybe a 3rd of the way in & I get this error message:
Request object error 'ASP 0104 : 80004005'

Operation not Allowed

/forum/outputFile.asp, line 13


Line 13 reads: RequestBin = Request.BinaryRead(byteCount)

The test file is a PDF. It's in my allow list. But even if I ZIP it or just go ahead and change the extension, same problem. Likewise, if I try any other file over about 100000 bytes, I get this same error.

FYI, small files (I've tried a number of them under 100000 bytes) all seem to work fine.

Help?

Ah, OK, that error's not realted to the size of the file; it just doesn't like BinaryRead(). Try adding enctype="multipart/form-data" to your form tag.

I think it's already there. Here is a cut & paste from my pop_upload_new.asp file:

Response.Write "<table bgColor=""" & strHeadCellColor & """ valign=""center"" width=""95%"" height=""95%"">" & vbNewline & _
" <tr>" & vbNewline & _
" <td align=""center"" width=""100%"">" & vbNewline & _
" <FORM METHOD=""Post"" ENCTYPE=""multipart/form-data"" ACTION=""outputFile.asp"">" & vbNewline & _
" <font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strHeadFontSize & """ color=""" & strHeadFontColor & """><b>File: </b></font><INPUT TYPE=""file"" NAME=""blob"" size=""40""><BR><br>" & vbNewline & _
" <input type=""hidden"" name=""memberName"" value=""" & strDBNTUserName & """>" & vbNewline & _
" <INPUT TYPE=""submit"" NAME=""Enter"" value=""Upload File to " & strDBNTUserName & "'s post"" onclick=""value='Wait... Uploading File...';""></p>" & vbNewline & _
" </FORM>" & vbNewline & _
" <input name=""PreviousFile"" type=""button"" value=""My Previously Uploaded Files"" onclick=""JavaScript:window.location=('myfiles.asp?InsertFile=select');"">" & vbNewline & _
" </td>" & vbNewline & _
" </tr>" & vbNewline & _
"</table>" & vbNewline


???

* sctraches head! * Sounds like their may be a buffer on your host preventing the upload of files over a certain size. Can you get your host to confirm or deny this before we go any further?

Hi all,

here's the answer I found on the net :



Q3: My server is IIS 6, and I cannot upload more than 200KB at a time? If I upload more than 200KB of data, I got the following error: Operation not Allowed, which happens at the line that calls the Request.BinaryRead method.

A3: The new metabase in IIS 6 has a restriction on the maximum file size ASP script can upload. Do the following to correct this issue (thanks to Ittech for the info)

quote:

Here's the code from the metabase.xml, which you can edit and it applies changes in realtime. Never restarted the forum/site :)

Gotta look under the header <IIsWebService Location ="/LM/W3SVC"

or for whatever service location site name you are using...

Change
AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed="204800"
to
AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed="10238976"
