WebDAV file size problems

Reply Contact

Hi,

I am having problems transferring large files with WebDAV in IIS7. The latest release is installed, but I had the same problem with the RTM one.

I tried what is in this post: http://forums.iis.net/t/1150370.aspx, but this setting only seems to control the WebDAV UPLOAD limit (i.e. if I try to save a file larger than the limit, it fails), but not the DOWNLOAD limit. I am able to download files up to 50,000,000 bytes without problems using WebDAV. Larger than that, it fails.

Interrestingly, HTTP downloads work fine for any file sizes.

Here is the Web.config file for this site (maxAllowedContentLenght is very low for testing purpose):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <directoryBrowse enabled="true" />
        <defaultDocument enabled="false" />
        <urlCompression doStaticCompression="false" />
        <staticContent>
            <mimeMap fileExtension=".ISO" mimeType="application/octet-stream" />
        </staticContent>
        <security>
            <requestFiltering>
                <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="20000" />
            </requestFiltering>
        </security>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

Thanks for your help.
