Question:
How to increase the size limit for uploading documents in Web Client?
Answer:
The default limit is 16 MB for uploading a document in Web Client. To increase this limit you have to modify the web.config (default C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dwwebclient\web.config).
*Note: Please back-up the file before modifying!
The value has to be set in kilobytes e.g. 200 MB is 204800 KB
[...]
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="204800"></httpRuntime>
[...]
If IIS7 is used, you have to add also the following lines in section system.webServer.
The value here has to be set in Bytes e.g. 200 MB is 209715200 Bytes
[...]
<system.webServer>
[...]
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="209715200" />
</requestFiltering>
</security>

This file seems to have been relocated to

at some point.
