Request entity too large Error(413)

I have an asp.net project that use a wcf on the server to save a file in the database. I am sending Json to the wcf.
this wcf work fine for small json file but when it come to a larger one it gives an error (My Json file is 150Kb ) :
"Remote server returned an unexpected response :Error (413) Request entity is too large error".
I tried every solution found on the internet :

<bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" 
                 maxBufferSize="2147483647"
                 maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647">
          <readerQuotas maxDepth="32"
                        maxArrayLength="2147483647"
                        maxStringContentLength="2147483647"/>
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>

Open in new window

and I tried configuring the iss UploadReadAheadSize but it didn't work .
Any Idea how to solve this issue?

Hi,
have you configured both the "client" side as well as the server (WCF service) side?
Is your WCF Service RESTful?

Hi,
Yes I have configured both side and my wcf service is RESTful.

Anil Golamari

You need to modify the configurations on both Service and Client as well. Are both have same configuration like maxbuffersize?

If you're still getting this error message while using the WCF Test Client, it's because the client has a separate MaxBufferSize setting. If not you can try below steps:

Right-Click on the Config File node and at the bottom of the tree
Select Edit with SvcConfigEditor
A list of editable settings will appear, including MaxBufferSize.

Note: Auto-generated proxy clients also set MaxBufferSize to 65536 by default.

Hi Anil Golamari i configured both service and client and maxbuffersize is set to "2147483647" in both .
in the edit with svcconfigeditor i have same properties that i already added in my webconfig code and set to the max.
Still not working.
Thank for your advice .

I'm recently facing this similar issue. the weird thing is that after I have done the configuration, I can use FileUpload control to upload large file, but not the Restful web service.

Is anyone found a solution here?
