How to set maxRequestLength and maxAllowedContentLength for a specific location in asp.net mvc, web.config file?

I have an ASP.Net MVC 4 application that is needed to load large files into specific actions. The route in question is "~ / UploadArea / UploadController / UploadAction", and the configuration I have installed looks like this:

<location path="~/UploadArea/UploadController/UploadAction"> <system.web> <!-- maxRequestLength is in kilobytes (KB) --> <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="100000" /> <!-- 100MB --> </system.web> <system.webServer> <security> <requestFiltering> <!-- maxAllowedContentLength is in bytes (B) --> <requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="100000000"/> <!-- 100MB --> </requestFiltering> </security> </system.webServer> </location>

If I do not use the location and do not use the configuration for the entire application, it just works fine, otherwise nothing happens, where is the problem setting node?

change your path to only be a controller / action, leave ~ / like this, I believe, makes IIS look for a literal path to the file that matches. therefore, depending on your routing and what this page is called, you can:

 <location path="UploadController/UploadAction">

or if this is the default action and is requested as mysite / UploadController, try:

 <location path="UploadController">
