WCF, IIS6.0 (413) Request Entity Too Large.

Question

Hello, guys. I've got annoyed problem. I've got WCF service(basicHttpBinding with Transport security Https). This service implements contract which consists 2 methods. LoadData. GetData. GetData works OK!. My client received pachage ~2Mb size without problems. All work correctly. But when I try load data by

  bool LoadData(Stream data); - signature of method

I'll get

 (413) Request Entity Too Large.

Stack Trace:

 Server stack trace: в 

ServiceModel.Channels.HttpChannelUtilities.ValidateRequestReplyResponse(HttpWebRequest request, HttpWebResponse response, HttpChannelFactory factory, WebException responseException, ChannelBinding channelBinding)

System.ServiceModel.Channels.RequestChannel.Request(Message message, TimeSpan timeout)
System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.RequestChannelBinder.Request(Message message, TimeSpan timeout)       

I try this http://blogs.msdn.com/jiruss/archive/2007/04/13/http-413-request-entity-too-large-can-t-upload-large-files-using-iis6.aspx. But it doesn't work! My server is 2003 with IIS6.0.

Please help.

Answer 1

Check out the binding settings like maxReceivedMessageSize and the readerQuotas element has settings you should also probably be handling.

Answer 2

To my mind bindings are ok:

  Server:

  <binding name="BindingConfiguration1" closeTimeout="00:10:00"
      openTimeout="00:10:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00"
      maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
      <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647"
      maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647"/>
      <security mode="Transport">
        <transport clientCredentialType="None" />
        <!--<message clientCredentialType="UserName" />-->
      </security>
    </binding>


 Client:


<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_ISynchronizer" closeTimeout="00:10:00"
      openTimeout="00:10:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00"
      allowCookies="false" bypassProxyOnLocal="false" hostNameComparisonMode="StrongWildcard"
      maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxBufferPoolSize="524288" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647"
      messageEncoding="Text" textEncoding="utf-8" transferMode="Buffered"
      useDefaultWebProxy="true">
      <readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="8192" maxArrayLength="16384"
        maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" />
      <security mode="Transport">
        <transport clientCredentialType="Basic" proxyCredentialType="None" realm=""/>
      </security>
    </binding>

I believe you need to make this change at the IIS level - may also need the WCF level changes above as well.
