SharePoint file size limit

I have tried many online tutorials on how to increase the download file size for a SharePoint document library without any luck.

Any ideas on how to increase the file upload limit in the document library?

I tried:

I followed the 1st instruction from the 2nd link that you provided:

  • In the SharePoint Central Administration Center 3.0 Application Management tab and the general web application, the settings configure maximum downloads up to 2047 MB ​​in size.

and it worked fine.

Are you sure that when you change the maximum download size you selected the appropriate web application ?

You can also change the limit in the code.

SPWebApplication oWebApplication = SPWebApplication.Lookup(new Uri("http://MyServer:989")); oWebApplication.MaximumFileSize = 2000; oWebApplication.Update();

(example taken from MSDN )

This will probably require administrator credentials ( SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges (delegate) . Of course, I would prefer to use the configuration change method mentioned above, @Marek Grzenkowicz
