Scheduler - Maximum request length exceeded.

[Jagat]

Hi,

We use a scheduler in our site which by default loads all the appointments for everyone on that given day.

We have a separate drop down which has user names. When a username is selected from the list, schedule for that user is loaded in the scheduler.

When the scheduler is empty , it loads well.

In some cases where the calendar is full with appointments, when i select a user from the drop down, I get the error given below. I get this error before it goes to  dropdown_selectedindexchange event.  Does this have anything to do with the view state? What fix is needed to get it working ?

 

'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown. ---> System.Web.HttpException: Maximum request length exceeded.
   at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetEntireRawContent()
   at System.Web.HttpRequest.FillInFormCollection()
   at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_Form()
   at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_HasForm()
   at System.Web.UI.Page.GetCollectionBasedOnMethod(Boolean dontReturnNull)
   at System.Web.UI.Page.DeterminePostBackMode()
   at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)

 

 

Thanks,

Ravi

I disabled view state on the control to see if it helps. 

It helped me to see the appointments for the day but now, i cannot see the week view or month view.

 

Any help on this issue is appreciated.

Thanks in Advance

Hello Jagat,

Have you set a value to the maxRequestLength property in the web.config? If you haven't its default value (4096 KB) will be used. If you are operating with large amount of data it might be exceeding this threshold, so you could try increasing it to 32 MB for instance. This can be done by adding the following to the system.web section in your web.config file:

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="32768" />

For IIS the property that has to be set is maxAllowedContentLength and its value is in bytes. The following has to be added to the system.webServer section:

<security>
    <requestFiltering>
        <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="33554432" />
    </requestFiltering>
</security>

Let us know whether this resolves the issue or the exception is still present.
