How to configure IIS7 to allow zip file uploads using classic asp?

Question

I recently installed Windows 2008 Server to replace a crashed hard drive on a web server with a variety of web pages including several classic ASP applications. One of these makes extensive use of file uploads using a com tool that has worked for several years.

More information:

My users did not provide good information in that very small zips (65K) work once I tested it myself, but larger ones do not. I did not test for the cut-off, but 365K fails. And it is not only zip files after all. A 700K doc file failed also. ErrorCode 800a0035.

Answer 1

Soneone named Anthony Jones in microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general provided the answer as follows:

In IIS7 IIS manager click in the web site and double click the ASP icon in the features view. Expand Limits Properties and modify the Maximum Requesting Entity Body Limit.

To which I replied:

That did the trick. And it was so easy. You have no idea how many things I tried that did not work.

I think there may be a second part though. One of the things I had done was to change the

setting in applicationhost.config from:

    <sectionGroup name="system.webServer">
        <section name="asp" overrideModeDefault="Deny" />

to

        <section name="asp" overrideModeDefault="Allow" />

After I made your change and tested it, I changed the above to Deny just on general principals of not fixing what was not broken. The website immediately stopped working until I changed it back to Allow.
