I wish to create an ASP.NET web application that allows upload of files up to a size of 4GB. How can I achieve that? I would prefer something like a “Download” manager where I can resume, pause etc…
Is that possible? If so, where should I start? I think asp.net has a limit of 4mb upload or something? I am not too sure..
Please advice.
Cheers
You can do files up to 4GB with ASP.NET using a third party solution that overrides the built-in request checking. This will work in all versions of IIS except IIS 7 integrated mode, which has a hard 2GB limit.
Most uploaders don’t have the capacity for pause/resume, so you may be out of luck there. Google and see what you can find. You’ll probably have to go Java or ActiveX to get this functionality.

I’m the author of SlickUpload, one of the first ASP.NET uploaders — it supports uploads up to 4 GB. We don’t have Flash, Silverlight, or Java support, but currently do have the best AJAX only experience, and the rich applet interfaces are coming in future versions.
