When we upload a large file in asp.net using file upload control we got an error.so how to over come this ? The Default size of Asp.Net is 4MB. Code In Web.Config put this code.

<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1048576" executionTimeout="600" />
</system.web>
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering><requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="3000000000" /></requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>
The below code maxRequestLength measured in kilobytes.Here is an example with a 1GB request length and a 10 minute request timeout:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1048576" executionTimeout="600" />
The below code maxAllowedContentLength measured in bytes.
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="3000000000" />
