In my asp .net project, my main page receives URL as a parameter I need to download internally and then process it. I know that I can use WebClient's DownloadFile method however I want to avoid malicious user from giving a url to a huge file, which will unnecessary traffic from my server. In order to avoid this, I'm looking for a solution to set maximum file size that DownloadFile will download.
Then I found this solution online to handle the error if someone tries to upload file bigger than 10 MB
[Code]....
This works great on my local machine but when I try to run it from Production server , It still shows me the "Internet Expolrer cannot display webpage". I just want to display a nice message to user when He tries to upload file larger than 10 MB.
Referencing my Earlier Question, regarding downloading a file from a server and handling exceptions properly. I am positive that I had this solved, then in classic programming fashion, returned days later to frustratingly find it broken
Updated code:
private static void GoGetIt(HttpContext context) { var directoryInfoOfWhereTheDirectoryFullOfFilesShouldBe = new FileInfo(......); [code]....
This was working fine, and returning the zip, otherwise if the file didn't exist returning 404. Then on the client side I could handle this:
public bool Download() { try { using (var client = new WebClient()) [code]....
But the problem now is two things.
1) I get System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted in the server side try-catch block. Usually this was just a file not found exception. I have no idea what or why that new exception is throwing?
2) Now that a different exception is throwing on the server side instead of the file not found, it would seem I can't use this set up for the application, because back on client side, any exception is assumed to be filenotfound.]
is there a way to increase the maximum 10 GB size limit of SQL Express? http://www.microsoft.com/express/Database/http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2008/en/us/editions-compare.aspx
Anyone familiar with the webclient.downloadfile method method? I'm looking for a way to help two users download files from an internal secure website. Right clicking File Save As, and then browsing to a folder is "too many steps". So, I'm curious what this method can do to reduce clicks and/or automate the download process.
I am using ASP.NET MVC to develop a site. The CSS file has grown to 88KB and is having a little more 5,000 lines. I noticed recently that styles added at the end are not there in the browser. Is there any size limit on CSS file or on the number of lines?
I use file upload control. How I can define that user can upload 300kb if they upload more than 300kb it show error that they can't upload more than 300KB...
I am using PageMethods to send a few parameters to a webmethod in my codebehind. The method runs a stored procedure and uses the results to build a string that I am returning from the method.
Everything works fine until I try to include too many records in my results..
Once the results I am trying to return hit about 70K, the pagemethod times out even though it is taking about 1 second to process the results.
Is there a buffer limit or limit on the size or results returned from a pagemethod and if so, where can this be set or changed?
Is there a setting in the web.config somewhere to handle pagemethod buffer size?

What is the best way of limit the size of an Accordion Pane when it contains a lot of data? I have an Accordion defined in the ASP which I'm building dynamically in the code behind,at present I'm just adding Literals to the pane (basically records from the db) The data I'm using generates four panes which contain 86, 4, 500 & 132 rows each. I was wondering if it's feasible to limit the rows being displayed by the Accordion Pane when the rows are greater than 20 but below that number have the size set to auto?
I am testing out a few different public RESTful APIs each differing in http argument value name, but in concept all work similarly. However none of the companies are connected so it must be something on my end.
Within .NET I get the following error when trying to obtain the HttpWebResponse: Message: "The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine" Status: ServerProtocolViolation {11} Using Fiddler, I am finding that the headers coming back are non-existent and this is the cause of the issue (not even present and improperly formatted): HTTP/1.0 200 This buggy server did not return headers The parameter I am sending in is a lengthy text news article. I have stripped ALL puntuation, characters, etc just to make sure nothing wans interferring. I build the text out using a StringBuilder and then create the URI like below: Dim sb As New StringBuilder sb.Append("&apiKey=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode("123456789")) sb.Append("&inputText=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(Me.MyTestText)) Dim ApiHttpWebRequest As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(New Uri(BaseRequestURL + sb.ToString.Trim())), HttpWebRequest) Dim ApiHttpWebResponse As HttpWebResponse = CType(ApiHttpWebRequest.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
This code DOES work with most text I send it. The interesting thing I am finding is that if I shorten the text I am sending then it works! I can't figure out exactly the threashold or breaking point. The stringbuilders values expand after the HttpUtility.UrlEncode function is run against it. However the text in size is only about 5-8 kilobytes in size and well below any size limitations set forth by the 'httpWebRequest' .config settings as laid out in the MSDN or by that of any of the APIs I am using (for example 1 limit is 150 kilobytes of text). I even tried setting all of those values to "-1" in the web.config which means: "A value of -1 indicates that no size limit will be imposed on the response headers."
