Hi Russ, Many thanks for your reply.
My CF admin has post data set to 100mb and I extended timeout on the page with the upload code. I'm not up on changing things in IIS7 configs. Is all I need to do is create a web.config file in the root directory of the site? I am not getting any error at all, would this suggest it's not a CF issue? No error, just nothing happens.

I know you have said that you have CF and IIS 7 set to 30MB, but lets just check you really have changed these settings in the right place. If these settings do not resolve it then It would also help if you could specify the error you receive and the time that the error occurs, e.g 60 seconds, 1000 seconds. For IIS 7 you need to add a new node to the web.config file of the target application. This node is added to the <system.webServer> section: 1: <security> 2: <requestFiltering> 3: <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="52428800" /> 4: </requestFiltering> 5: </security> The value of the maxAllowedContentLength attribute is the number of bytes for the request. If you want to allow 50 MB file upload this means 1024 x 1024 x 50 = 52428800 *For ColdFusion, you need to check the following* Server Settings > Settings Timeout Requests after ( seconds) Maximum size of post data* *If you are running fusionReactor or something similar, then you will need to exclude the file upload action page from the crash protection.* * > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jenny Gavin-Wear [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2011 12:13 PM > To: cf-talk > Subject: Uploading Largish Files > > > Hi all, > > I'm trying to upload video files, around 25mb max. > > I can't see that it's a problem as they fall well short of the 30mb max set > by IIS 7 and the 100mb max set in CF admin. > > The site I'm uploading them to is on my local network (100mb), so there > shouldn't be any timeout issues, but I did add > > <cfsetting enableCFoutputOnly = "no" requestTimeOut = "10000" > > > just in case. > > Would be grateful for any ideas as to why it's a problem, please? > > Jenny > No virus found in this outgoing message. > Checked by AVG - www.avg.com > Version: 9.0.894 / Virus Database: 271.1.1/3567 - Release Date: 04/11/11 > 20:25:00 > > > > > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:343739 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
