I am getting this WinIOError "Insufficient system resources exist to
complete the requested service" when I try to execute the following
code in an ASP.NET 1.1 application uploading a very large file (140
MB). Server is Windows 2003 Standard (SP1) with 1 GB memory running
IIS 6. There is plenty of free hard drive space.

STACKTRACE: at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String
str) at System.IO.FileStream.WriteCore(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset,
Int32 count) at System.IO.FileStream.Write(Byte[] array, Int32 offset,
Int32 count) at System.Web.HttpPostedFile.SaveAs(String filename) at
WebSFTP.Viewer.PleaseWaitButton1_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)


CODE:

Dim

fil As HttpPostedFile = attachment.PostedFile
fil.SaveAs(strSaveLocation & System.IO.Path.GetFileName(fil.FileName))

The exception is thrown on the SaveAs line above. Any one have any
idea what the problem is?
 
Update -
I have tried increasing the IIS metabase setting
AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed from "204800" to "3145728" and this did not
help at all.
 
Hi,
I'm having an almost identical problem as you except my file size is 130
MB. I've increased the metabase setting and also tested on IIS 5 and 6,
I get the same error. If you come across a resolution please could you
update this message - I will do the same.

Joe
