PDF Upload Problem

I can upload text files without any issue, but when I upload a PDF its just says "Uploading Document please wait" and nothing happens, and the upload button is greyed out.

Any suggestions would help.

Thanks

RE: PDF Upload Problem

i'm having the exact same problem. the pdf i'm trying to upload is just under 500k. other pdfs in 100k and 200k work fine. but when i try to upload something that's 495k it just stalls(says "Uploading Document please wait")...nothing happens. i tried to upload the same large file on the FCKeditor.net demo editor and it worked fine - no problems. is there a server setting that may throw the one we have off?

RE: PDF Upload Problem

Are you running IIS on Windows 2003? If so, your problem is almost certainly the post limit in IIS.

To fix.

1. Stop the IIS service (IIS Admin Service and World Wide Web Publishing Service)
2. Open your c:\Windows\System32\Inetsrv\metabase.XML
3. Change "AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed" to "104857600" (or larger, this is the post limit in bytes)
4. Change "AspBufferingLimit" to "104857600" (or larger, this is the post limit in bytes)
5. Start the IIS service.
