A:
The maximum request size is, by default, 4mb (4096 bytes)
This is explained here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;295626
The above article also explains how to fix this issue :)

A:
If you are using IIS for hosting your application, then the default upload file size if 4MB. To increase it, please use this below section in your web.config -
<configuration>
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1048576" />
</system.web>
</configuration>
Just to add - If you are using IIS7 then you need to use below lines instead of above -
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="1048576" />
</requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>

@Surya- The length is in kbytes. So you can set any size as you want in MaxRequestLength. My example sets the size to 1gb, yours is 32MB

At least in IIS7, the MSDN docs state that that maxAllowedContentLength is specified in bytes, not kbytes "Optional uint attribute.Specifies the maximum length of content in a request, in bytes.The default value is 30000000." from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms689462%28VS.90%29.aspx

There's an element in web.config to configure the max size of the uploaded file:
<httpRuntime
maxRequestLength="1048576"
/>
