httpRuntime - MaxRequestLength - 404 error

[Goncalo]

Hi.

I'm having a problem uploading a file in asp.net.

In Web.config file, httpRuntime as the default
MaxRequestLength to 4 Mbytes.

Then I upload a 5 MByte file.
IIS protects itself and shows an 404 - File Not Found
Exception.

How can I overload this? Can I redirect to a diferent
page? Can I display a message saying that the file is too
big?

Thank's in advance

You can build your own 404 page and assign the page you made in the IIS
config

Ok. That works.

I have another question, maybe you can help me.

httpRequest definition as an enable property
set at URL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
url=/library/en-
us/cpgenref/html/gngrfhttpruntimesection.asp

and its default value is true. When 'false', the result
expected, and I quote "Specifies that the App Domain be
disabled. The application is not loaded in memory and any
client request will cause a 404 error to be issued."

But, when in my web.config file I set the enable to true
ou false .net gives an Parser Error Message: Unrecognized
attribute 'enable'.

Help needed.
