    <p>I have a web service on which the end users will be uploading ZIP archives that can be very large (one test file is over 200MB). I'd like to handle oversized files proactively and size-limited upload failures gracefully.</p> <p>Since the web app will be deployed on customers' machines, so I cannot easily ensure that the configuration matches any fixed size. I've documented how to use the <strong>appcmd</strong> command for them to set the <strong>requestLimits.maxAllowedContentLength</strong> value beyond the 30MB default.</p> <p>But I'd like to handle it in the web app; I'm hoping for two things:</p> <ol> <li><p>To show the current limit on the page where they initiate the file upload, something along the lines of:</p> <p><strong>Each file upload is limited to</strong> <em>15MB</em>. <strong>If your archive is larger,</strong> <em>(etc., etc., etc.)</em></p></li> <li><p>To give a meaningful error when that size is exceeded. Currently, it takes a long time for the data to be sent, and then I see a misleading 404 page.</p></li> </ol> <p>Any thoughts?</p> <p><strong>[Edit]</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/10920_3426051_2/Limiting-Upload-Sizes-with-ASPNET.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/10920_3426051_2/Limiting-Upload-Sizes-with-ASPNET.htm</a></p> <p>I found the above article -- but while I can intercept the error I keep getting a connection reset in the browser on <strong>Request.Redirect()</strong> or <strong>Context.RewritePath()</strong> so it's really no better than the 404. Hmmm, actually that's with VS2008's debug server, not with IIS.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
