Hi,
Problem : On a SharePoint server (WSS 3.0, MOSS 2007, SharePoint Server 2010 or SharePoint Server 2013) when we upload any document larger than 30 MB on any document library, we are encountering the following error messages.
- Maximum Request length exceeds
- Index was outside the bounds of the array
- Request timed Out
- An unexpected error has occurred
- The page cannot be displayed
- An unknown error occurred
- HTTP 404 – Page Not Found
To go ahead we tried with the alternate workarounds. But still we are not able to upload larger files to SharePoint using web services. Below are the options we tried, but no luck :
- Increased the maximum upload size for the web application
- Increased the connection time-out setting in IIS
- Increased the maximum upload size in the web.config file of web application
- Increased the default chunk size for large files
- Added the execution Timeout value
After investigation it is learnt that when using WSS 3.0, MOSS 2007, SharePoint Server 2010 or SharePoint Server 2013 Services running on a Window Server 2008-based computer that is also running Internet Information Services 7.0,cannot upload files that are larger than 28 megabytes (MB).
Need help in identifying alternative ways where I can overcome issue of large file upload to SharePoint Library using web services(either asynchronous or synchronous) or helping us in rewriting code using UploadDataAsync along with CopyWeb Service when the file is too large.Were any recent enhancements made in the Copy web services of 2013 SharePoint services. If yes, what is the default size limit?
Thank you,
Arun Ragi
