PDF survey upload fails

[Ghislain Hachey]

The new PDF Survey uploading fails with the following.

Error is thrown here.

Content of the request compared with a previous year survey looks the same. Only difference is it is much larger.

Seems simply increasing the upload size limit to 20MB resolves the issue in development. Waiting on feedback to confirm this is also resolved in production before resolving here.

This will be to do with the maximum allowable upload size set in web.config

‌

system.web\HttpRuntime@maxRequestLength

‌

setting is in Kilobytes ie 6000 == 6 Mb

OK I see that you have found this already!

Another thing that will lead to a similar error with uploads is the lack of write permissions on the filedb folder as configured in web.config. The user running the web application should have write access.
