Azure upload limit
Folks, I wrote a utility to conveniently upload/download files from Azure Blob Storage, it uses UploadFromStream https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj717380.aspx in its simplest form. It's been working well for weeks, but this morning I tried to upload a 25MB file and after 20 minutes it threw this: Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.StorageException occurred HResult=-2146233088 Message=The request was aborted: The request was canceled. Source=Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage Experiments show I can upload 4, 8, 12, and 16 MB files, but 20 dies with the error. I tried altering the ServerTimeout and MaximumExecutionTime properties of the blob client and the blob request but it makes no difference. Web searches as usual don't help. Has anyone encountered this issue and defeated it? *Greg K*
Re: Azure upload limit
Not hit that issue, but the files I upload are small images so unlikely. Good to know there's a setting that helped. cheers Stephen On Thu, 20 Aug 2015 at 08:44 Greg Keogh gfke...@gmail.com wrote: Wouldn't you know it, seconds after I posted the upload problem, my last experiment with 20MB finished okay. I discovered another settings that looked suspiciously useful. If you set the properties on the Blob before upload it seems to overcome the default limit: BlobRequestOptions .ServerTimeout .MaximumExeceutionTime I don't if both are needed due to lack of experimenting time, but now my uploads are going again. Setting the same properties on the Blob client also works. *Greg*
