Summary

Web Access imposes a size limitation for uploading an electronic file to the database. The default size limit for an electronic file is 100 MB.

More Information

The default document upload size limit is set in an ASP file located in the Web Access directory.

To edit the default upload file size limit:

  1. From a text editor, open the UploadEdoc.asp file. This file can be found in the C:\Program Files\LaserFiche\Web Access\ASPs directory.
  2. Look for a line that reads "acceptor.MaxDataRead = 100 * 1024 * 1024"

    Note: This value is set in bytes, thus 100 * 1024 * 1024 bytes = 102400 KB = 100 MB

  3. To change the limit, replace the "100" with the new limit in megabytes. For example, to set the upload limit to 200 MB, change the value to 200 * 1024 * 1024.

More Information

Web Access assigns an upload size limit as a safeguard against time-out issues.
