For IIS 6:

• Go to IIS and right click the server, select properties, and check the box "Allow changes to MetaBase configuration while IIS is running"; if after this step the metabase file is still locked, try turning off IIS or even restarting the machine in safe mode.

• Open in a text editor the Metabase file, which can be found at c:\\Windows\\System32\\Inetsrv\\MetaBase.xml .

• The variable AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed limits the number of bytes in the page request (by default 200KB ); change the value to 1073741824 (unlimited) or to a limit of your choice. Check whether the same variable shows up in other places in the file and change them too.

For IIS 7:

• Highlight your website, then open the "Advanced Settings..." link in the right-most panel. Set "ConnectionTime-out (seconds)" to a much bigger number. For example: "3600", which is an hour.

• Close "Advanced Settings...".

• While still highlighting your website, click on the "ASP" tab, then expand "Limits Properties" and set " Maximum Requesting Entity Body Limit " to 1073741824.

• Finally, open a command window as an administrator and run the command "c:\\windows\\system32\\inetsrv\\appcmd set config -section:requestFiltering -requestLimits.maxAllowedContentLength:100000000" .

• This tells IIS the largest amount you may upload, in this case, it's 100MB. You may set your number accordingly.
