System.Web.HttpException: Request timed out

Question

I have problem with "System.Web.HttpException: Request timed out" when i use to get large data. Moreover i have changed in web.config file.

Could anyone help me?

Answer 1

You need to be more specific.

How large is the data?

What are you using to retrieve it page, handler, ajax?

what setting have you changed in the web.config and to what value?

What version of IIS/ASP.net are you running?

Answer 2

I assume you mean you've changed the executionTimeout attribute?

How much data are we talking about? And how long is it timing out after?

Answer 3

The data is around 10Mb and i try to run in MS sql server direct, it takes around 4 minutes. i use handler to get the file download and i have increase the executionTimeout and maxRequestLength in web config. i run asp.net2.0 on iis 6 with win server 2003 64x.
