The size of the uploaded file exceeds max size allowed

[Charles Faramarzi-rad]

Hello there;

We have installed the latest version of the mosseditor in our sharepoint environment. We have ran into the max size issue when trying to upload , for example, wmv files. This particular file is 29 mbs.

I have followed suggestions to modify the Config.xml file <property name="MaxDocumentSize">512000</property>

Also I have modified, or tried to modify the maxRequestLength in our sharepoint web application , however, it was already set to 512000.  After performing these changes, my expectation was to be able to upload the file, however, that is not the case.

please help.

thanks

Charles

Hi Charles Faramarzi-rad,

The default value of the MaxDocumentSize property is 204800 bytes which is 200 kilobytes.
29 megabytes are equal to 30 408 704 bytes so you should set for example:

<property name="MaxDocumentSize">50408704</property>

50 408 704 bytes are 48.0734863 megabytes.

Best wishes,

Hi;
we've fixed the issue.  we simply needed to modify the

<

 

property name="MaxMediaSize">51200000</property>

 

<

 

property name="MaxFlashSize">51200000</property>

 

in the listconfigfile.xml and configfile.xml in the resource folder.
On a side note, I think it's silly that those properties are no preset or commented out in the confiles, so that we wouldn't have to go digging around the internet to find out the property names.

Also on another note, even though we were able to successfully increase the upload size , We still can't use the media manager and flash manager in SharePoint lists, because sharepoint erases anything with an "<object>" tag.  Very disappointing.  I hope Telerik is working with microsoft on a fix for this.  i've seen posts such as http://erte.codeplex.com/ that suggest this is a deffinite possibility.

thanks
