File upload too large

I use cffile action="Upload", and it works just fine for smaller files. But yesterday, I tried uploading a 42Meg pdf and it just sat there all night long.

Q: Is there something I should know regarding uploading larger files? I define larger as: the one that sat there all night long and never timed out and never uploaded. For instance, is there a cflib or Riaforge routine that was written to handle larger files?

Right now I'm at version 8 at hosting.com.

You can change setting in CFadministrator > settings > Request Size Limits

In addition to the file upload limits in CF, most web servers (Apache, IIS, etc) have an upload limit. Check that as well.

Check the maximum post size set in ColdFusion Administrator. If it is set lower than 48 MB then you would have issues. I have uploaded much larger (200+ MB) with standard cffile with no issues.
