System.Net.WebException:

Hi,
I am trying to make a simple file updload WinForm app.
Here's the code:
WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
webClient.UploadFile(new Uri("http://localhost/WebSite/Upload.aspx"),
"c:\\bin.zip");
My IIS 5.1 Web server uses default configuration.
If the file is less than 5Mo everything works fine. If the file is too big I
get this exception:
System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected
error occurred on a receive. --> System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data
from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by
the remote host. --> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An existing
connection was forcibly closed by the remote host
I will never have to upload more than 30Mo.
Do you now how I can correct this issue ?In the web.config file, the httpRunTime element has a maxRequestLength which
restricts the length in bytes of any HTTP request. The default is 4MB.
HTH,
