MVC4 File Upload and "maxRequestLength"
Experts,
I'm in quite a bind here and could use some help. I am a new C# / MVC developer and am also new to Visual Studios as a whole.. But I've managed to develop a small portal site that allows users to upload a video. This is where I ran into the dreaded 404.13 error: "The request filtering module is configured to deny a request that exceeds the request content length."
I've done some research and found a number of solutions, non of which seem to make any difference.
1. Change the machine config as such:
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\
its.maxAllowedContentLengt
That did't work..
2. Add code to Web.Config:
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="21478364
useFullyQualifiedRedirectU
executionTimeout="45"
versionHeader="1.1.4128"/>
</system.web>
I tried this in a number of variations, to no avail. I put it in Web.Debug.Config / Web.Config, etc..
I should also add that I am on a Windows 8 machine, and am running the website in debug mode through whatever IIS Express service Visual Studio 2012 provides by default.
I am a total newb.. so I don't even know what each config file is suppose to do. Please help.
Thank you very much!

I don't need to state the obvious. I need a solution. And as you can see, I do not have IIS installed. I'm using the built-in web service provided by the VS2012 runtime.
rkworlds,
I've tried that, as you can see in my post. I also tried adding the executionTimeout value. No change. I've also modified the machine config as my post specifies.
Any other solutions?
