50MB file uplaod error
[WSS3]
Hi All,
I have a 52 MB file that I try to uplaod and I get 404 the page cannot be found (when hitting the OK button).
I set the maximun file upload to 700MB in the central admin and set the timeout in IIS to 24 minutes, but still have the problem.
Any thoughts?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi arevach,
as you told you increase maximum file upload and increase timeout in iis, have you try the following steps:-
1- increase the default chunk size for large files :-
Stsadm.exe –o setproperty –pn large–file–chunk–size –pv <size in bytes>.
i advise you read the following article

this article have many trouble shooting tips for your problem.

Apart from increasing the maximum file upload limit to 700 MB in CA, you should do the following too:
In web.config file, under the httpRuntime tag in
system.web section:
Increase the upload limit to match the value that you set earlier in central admin
Add the execution timeout to allow more time before it times out. the line should look like:
Example:
<httpRuntime executionTimeout="300" maxRequestLength="700000"/>
where 300 means 5 minutes as execution time out and 700000 allows uploading 700 MB files.
