    To solve this problem go to C:\windows\syst em32\inetsvr and edit metabase.xml after stopping IIS.

    The default setting of AspMaxRequestEn tityAllowed is set to 204800. To
    allow for larger upload, increase this setting. Example: To increase to 1MB
    then 5 * 200kb = 1MB. Multiply 204800 * 5 =1024000 so change the setting
    to 1024000.

    Alternatively, if you install the IIS Resource Kit it includes a tool called Metabase Explorer which can alter the metabase while IIS is running.

    In some cases, you may need to enable a setting called "Enable Direct Metabase Edit" in IIS. To do open up the properties dialog for the computer name at the top of the IIS Manager window and the option should be listed there.
