SilverLight WCF Size Problem

Hello;

I've been recently developing an application using Silverlight 4 as with WCF service back end, so some of the functionalities in the project required to upload dome files and store them in a database, but I had a problem reagrding the size of the uploaded file, after googling a lot; all sites were talking about the configuration of the WCF service and the client (you know maxReceivedMessageSize and maxBufferSize="2147483647" and so...); but after changing the configuration it seemed that the problem remains.

The exception I kept receiving when the file is about 3 MB is:

System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException was unhandled by user code

Message=The remote server returned an error: NotFound…

Today I found out the solution in some site; it has nothing to do with the configuration of the WCF and SL client; it is related to the httpRuntime in system.web :)

So if you had the same problem just add this in system.web in your service config file:

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="2097151" executionTimeout="1000"/>

and of course the configuration in the WCF must allow large files:

Server:

<basicHttpBinding>

        <binding name="silverLightBinding"

                 maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647"

                 sendTimeout="0:1:0">

                 <readerQuotas maxArrayLength="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647"/>

        binding>

basicHttpBinding>

Client:

<bindings>

     <basicHttpBinding>

              <binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IDataManager"

                      maxBufferSize="2147483647"

                      maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">

               

                <security mode="None" />

              binding>

            basicHttpBinding>

bindings>

I hope that was useful…
