You can't upload or view a large file. You may get an error such as:
The request Failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found
or
Error Message: There was an exception running the extensions specified in the config file. Maximum request length exceeded.
The IIS webserver is set to limit the size of requests, including file uploads and downloads. This is to protect the network and server in shared environments, and is configurable. The configuration depends on which version of IIS is in use.
By default, IIS sets a maximum content length in bytes. To change this you will need to edit the web.config file for the PIAB web application.
