When you post a large form field in Microsoft Internet Information Services 5.0, you may receive the following error message:
Error Type:
Request object, ASP 0107 (0x80004005)
The data being processed is over the allowed limit.
When you post a large form field in Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0, you may receive the following error message:
Request object error 'ASP 0107 : 80004005'
Stack Overflow
/projectname/page.asp, line XX
The data being processed is over the allowed limit.
To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods:
| • |
Instead of reading form variable values with the Request.Form collection, use Request.BinaryRead (Request.TotalBytes), and parse the form values from the output of Request.BinaryRead. |
| • |
Use a File Upload scheme, such as Microsoft Posting Acceptor. |
| • |
Break the HTML form variables into multiple form variables before you submit the form. The 102,399 byte limit is for each form variable, so you can have multiple form variables of 102,399 characters or less.
