    Hi All,

    Is anyone had experience with downloading a very large file (500+ Mb) using DMX module? Currently, I have a problem of not being able to download a very large file. I uploaded the file successfuly using the backend, and modify the required field in database as necessary. Can some one share their thoughts please? Thanks in advance.

    FYI, I disabled the Compression module.

    Have you tried adjusting the executionTimeout?

    Hi Peter,

    For quick fix, we are trying to add this code to the module:

    If objEntry.FileSize > 200000 Then
     Response.Redirect "~/Download/" + objEntry.OriginalFileName
     Exit Sub
       End If

    I realized this is a really bad for security, however, we are going to upgrade to DMX 4 in the future.

    But, when I tried to add the above code by opening the solution in VS2005, it threw me 100+ errors. Do you know the quick way to execute/compile the change?

    Thanks in advance.

    Ronny,

    This has nothing to do with the module and everything with IIS and ASP.NET. If you get timeouts then you have to take steps to increase the timeout. I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but if you change the source code then you have to tackle the errors that are introduced. I'm sure you understand.

    Peter,

    I'm having a similar problem when setting permissions on a large folder structure if I select the Unify Permissions on Children checkbox. Everything works fine if I set permissions a folder with relatively few subfolders, however, it times out on folders with maybe 20+ or so subfolders. I've tried changing my connection string timeout in web.config to something like Connect Timeout=120. I've also changed the web site timeout to 120 seconds in IIS. No luck. I still get a timeout after about 30 seconds. Are there other timeout settings that you're aware of?

    Hi Eric,
    This is a known issue. I hope to have a solution for it one day. It requires some architectural changes, though, and that should be done with care. For now you'll need to chunk these updates.

    Peter,

    How far are we on this update. Not having Unify on Children working for large numbers of files and folders is rendering the product almost unusable for me.

    Brandon,
    Are you referring to DMX 3 or 4?
