Resolution

Issue:

Error when opening SmartForms rules: Maximum request length exceeded.

Resolution:
To fix, please try the following:
1. Go to C:Program Files (x86)K2 blackpearlK2 SmartForms Designerweb.config
2. Make a backup of the file
3. Locate the following line and set the maxRequesstLength to:



Note: This is the max allowable length that IIS can handle.

3. Save the file and do an IISRESET
4. Clear the browser's cache, restart the browser and try editing the form again.

 

 



 

The name of the property to change is misspelt and the value to change it to is missing altogether. However, apart from this I found the article very useful.

 

I changed the value of maxRequestLength to 2097151 which did the trick for me.


We experience this with a Form with 15 States.. and worked great.  

 

Just double the value and even seem to be running a bit faster... 16384

 

Great Post.
