It is not just related to upload file size or the process time out there might be issue with the data type while you are saving the record into the db , or the data type might be an issue check these things as well.

Hi
Try the below link

or you can use ajax file upload
Ajax FileUpload Control In Asp.Net or Multiple FileUpload With Progress Example in Asp.Net Using C#.Net

Hello,
I guess, you will also need to look into timeout properties. What if you have given sufficient request length value but lesser timeout value for request / response processing?

Hello,
Why not just change number 100000 to something very high value, just as 1073741824.
