    text
    copied!<p>I'm getting this error when uploading a file that is 84MB (see error below) but when I upload a ~60MB file, it works fine. This only occurs on our 32bit 2008 VM w/ 4GB memory. On my R2 64bit VM w/8GB memory, it works fine with even 130MB file.</p> <blockquote> <p>System.OutOfMemoryException: Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown. at System.IO.BinaryReader.ReadBytes(Int32 count) at CustWeb.Controllers.DownloadsController.Create(Download dl, HttpPostedFileBase file) in c:\...\CustWeb\Controllers\DownloadsController.cs:line 72</p> </blockquote> <p>I monitored the Memory in the task manager, though, and it never goes above 74% during the entire upload process.</p> <p>This is an MVC 4 application on the 4.5 .NET framework.</p> <p>I have the max settings in my web.config in dealing with uploading files.</p> <pre><code>&lt;httpRuntime requestValidationMode="4.5" targetFramework="4.5" maxRequestLength="2147483647" executionTimeout="84000" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>...</p> <pre><code>&lt;security&gt; &lt;requestFiltering&gt; &lt;requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="2147482624" /&gt; &lt;/requestFiltering&gt; &lt;/security&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong> Adding code as requested:</p> <pre><code> public ActionResult Create(Download dl, HttpPostedFileBase file) { try { using (var binaryReader = new BinaryReader(file.InputStream)) { dl.FileBytes = binaryReader.ReadBytes(file.ContentLength); } dl.FileContentType = file.ContentType; dl.FileName = file.FileName; dl.Insert(); Success("&lt;strong&gt;" + dl.Label + "&lt;/strong&gt; created and uploaded successfully."); return RedirectToAction("Index"); } catch (Exception ex) { SelectList list = new SelectList(new DownloadType().GetDownloadTypes(), "ID", "Name"); ViewBag.DownloadTypeList = list; Error(ex.ToString()); return View(dl); } } </code></pre>
