IIS5 VS IIS6

[Areid_philombios]

I have a custom File management ASP application that handles Large File uploads and download from a database (30 - 40 MB files) The application works fine on IIS5 but when I relocate it to IIS6 i get an error when I file not found error when i attempt to download out of the Database. IS there a reg setting or metabase setting that i need to change to handle large blob outputs.? Sorry I can't be more specific about the error msg but that is all it give's me a File not found error. it does however work fine with small files less then 2mb in size
Thank

It's not a file not found error, it's one of those "helpful" and "friendly"
ridiculously misleading and asinine error messages that Microsoft thought
would be helpful for users.

I took a look at those article's and they don't seem to apply( I may be missing something here) The Code and the web pages work for small files but not for large file's If I missed which article and which part of the article Please let me kno
Thank yo

Thanks But Unfortunately that did not work
Tried setting both to 1073741824(1GB) and still the same error
What else can cause this problem
Thank

Have you tried using a different upload component?

Also, I'm still kind of frustrated that you aren't getting the real error.
As I stated before, this dumb "page not found" error is Microsoft's idea of
a cruel joke. Try seeing if following http://www.aspfaq.com/2109 will yield
the real error. Also, try increasing your server.scripttimeout. You might
have a timeout issue (note that this might also be at the firewall level).

Or, try not uploading 10 MB files. Offer a facility for FTP or something a
little more robust than HTTP.

Other than that, sorry, I'm out of ideas.
