How to set the maxAllowedContentLength to 500MB while running on IIS7?
.net-4.0, asp.net, file-upload, iis-7
Solution
According to MSDN `maxAllowedContentLength` has type `uint`, its maximum value is 4,294,967,295 bytes = 3,99 gb
So it should work fine.
See also Request Limits article. Does IIS return one of these errors when the appropriate section is not configured at all?

Problem
I changed the maxAllowedContentLength to ``` <security> <requestFiltering> <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="5024000000" /> </requestFiltering> </security> ``` In my web.config, but when running on IIS7 I get this error: The 'maxAllowedContentLength' attribute is invalid. Not a valid unsigned integer but when I run in the VS server it run normally without any errors. How to config my website to allow upload files with 500MB size, without this problem on IIS7?
