I posted this under reviews...but I think that is the wrong place.

I have 0ver 15 sites hosted with a company that just moved all there servers to Windows 2003 server.

Now on all my sites I'm getting the following error:
<font color=blue>
Request objecterror 'ASP 0104 : 80004005'

Operation not Allowed

D:\WEBSITES\JDESCUGORG\ADMIN\UPLOADS\../../ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.asp, line 36
</font id=blue>
This line is : <font color=red> RequestBin = Request.BinaryRead(Request.TotalBytes)
</font id=red>
The hosting company tells me that my code is messed up...of coarse. But I've been using Pure ASP Upload 2.09 for years...with no problem at all. Recently they upgraded one of there servers to W3K Server...and now Pure ASP Upload 2.01 doesn't work.

Seems to me like it's some permission that is causing this error. What can I tell the hosting company? Seriosly, I have over 15 site...all relying on the Pure Asp Upload for the document upload.....I am screwed majorly if we can't fix this.

HEEEELLLLLPPP!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks.

I'm getting the same issue with Windows 2003. Does anyone know the answer to this? I've notice that if the file is very small...say a few KB in size it will upload the file successfully. If the file is larger...even 500kb, it fails with the same message as above.
Thanks

No...I havn't heard anything...except this post by Marco on the main Pure ASP Upload page:

<font color=green>I had the same problem i have fixed it by edit the metabase.xml like this:

go to c:\windows\system32\inetsvr
edit in metabase.xml
find the line "AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed" and change the value to "1073741824".


Greetings,

Marco

It seems that IIS6 has some extra security settings, one of this is a filesize limit. It results in a error on the BinaryRead if the filesize is to big.

The answer from Marco will allow you to upload bigger files, we don't have an Windows 2003 server to confirm and test it ourself.

I have just spent hours on the phone with my host company. Yes it is using IIS6. I know that this is the problem but now I actually have microsoft documentation to back be up. Just sent a copy of this to my hosting company (Interland). THought I would share.

See the following URL for info.
www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/proddocs/standard/ref_mb_aspmaxrequestentityallowed.asp

Basically there is a new setting in IIS6 that defaults to 200kb for uploads. It must be switched according to the microsoft documentation. It was also mentioned about in another post.

Just thought I would try to save anyone else the hastle that I went through. Good luck with your hosts.

To anyone checking this thread. Interland has refused to make any changes. I will be changing to Crystaltech who changed the XML files at my request.
