Why are uploaded files to ASP.NET web Application greater than 12MBbeing shown as 0MB?

Our ASP.NET C# web application is used in the following environment - .NET Framework 4 - IIS 7 - Windows 2008 - Visual Studio 2010 .NET IDE - C# - HTTPS ( SSL ) Our ASP.NET C# web application uploads various files like jpgs, mp4, mp3, pngs, docx, txt, etc to a folder called ClientBin. However, if wedeploy the application to an IIS7 server, we have to give the web user of our application permission to upload file. We give the \IIS_IUSRS group permission to execute, read, write and execute on our ClientBin upload folder.

A web user can upload files that have size less than approximately 12MB.

However, when a web user uploads any more than approximately 12MB, the filethat gets uploaded will be 0 bytes on the server's ClientBin upload folder..

In our Web.config, we have the following configurations for httpRuntime tag:

<system.web>
....
......
.........
...............
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1048576" executionTimeout="50000" useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="false" requestLengthDiskThreshold="15360"minFreeThreads="8" minLocalRequestFreeThreads="4" appRequestQueueLimit="100" />


</system.web>



In our Web.config, we have the following configurations for requestLimits tag:
<system.webServer>

...............
..........................
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="2000000000" />
<fileExtensions>
<add fileExtension=".aspx" allowed="true" />
</fileExtensions>
</requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>

I also took the undesired approach of modifying the machine.config file by creating the following settings:

<system.web>

<processModel responseDeadlockInterval="0:09:00"
responseRestartDeadlockInterval="0:09:00" />

......................
...........................................
..............................................................
</system.web>

In IIS 7, I clicked on the website and expanded it then clicked the ASP icon.

Expand the Limits Properties icon, and change the value in the “Maximum Requesting Entity Body Limit” to a value larger than 200000 (which is about 200kb). 4194304 would be about 4 Mb, 41943040 would be 40 Mb.

Why are uploaded files to ASP.NET web Application greater than 12MB being shown as 0MB ?

What IIS (and IDE) did you (initially) set/use for the creation of the (ASP..NET) file upload application pages to work with? You say that it worked onthe previous system....what OS/Web server was that performed on? Are you self hosting/in-house, or doing the upload service through a hosting company? A little more details about the scenario would surely help.

I would think to go and check the server configuration in IIS 7, since it seems like a size 'cap' is applied to this situation. I would suspect that something in the IIS 7 server config is playing with you, and this could be the case if you are hosted by a hosting service.
