Web Agent on IIS 6.0 Has Size Limit for Uploading Files (30391)

Symptom:

The Web Agent installed on an IIS 6.0 Web server has a size limit of 2.5 MB for uploading files.

Solution:

To upload files that are larger than this limit, do the following:

  1. Create the new DWORD registry key in SOFTWARE\Netegrity\SiteMinder Web Agent\Microsoft IIS called MaxRequestAllowed.
  2. Set this value to the desired file size limit.

    The value of this key overrides the default limit. If the value of this key is less than or equal to 0, then the default of 2.5 MB will be used.

    Note: The IIS 6.0 Web server has its own size limit. Changing the Web Agent's limit will not affect the IIS 6.0 limit. If you want to change the IIS 6.0 server's limit, refer to Microsoft IIS 6.0 documentation.
