What is the maximum size a session variable can hold?

asp.net, session, session-variables

Solution

Try to change requestLengthDiskThreshold to this:

<system.web>
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="90" 
                 maxRequestLength="20000" 
                 useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="false" 
                 requestLengthDiskThreshold="8192"/>
</system.web>

Problem

What is the maximum size a session variable can hold ? I am trying to store object in session variable, if object size is under 80 KB, then working fine and if the size is greater than 80 KB then on retrieval I am getting an exception. How can I increase the session variable size? This behaviour is on my production server, on the development machine I can store big objects like above 500 KB etc.. I am implementing something like... http://aspalliance.com/1221_CodeSnip_Uploading_Multiple_Files_At_Once.all Here is my code: ``` private static int count = 0; protected void Upload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { for (int loopCount = 0; loopCount < count; loopCount++) { HtmlInputFile hif = (HtmlInputFile)Session["myupload" + loopCount]; String filePath = Server.MapPath("~/AdvImages/") + loopCount.ToString() + "_" + hif.PostedFile.FileName; hif.PostedFile.SaveAs(filePath); Session.Abandon(); } } protected void btnAdd_Click1(object sender, EventArgs e) { Session["myupload" + count] = FileUpload1; count++; } ``` Thanks
