When users import Contacts or Keywords through Content Manager Explorer, the CSV file is uploaded to the location you set in Content Manager Explorer. This location defaults to C:\ProgramData\SDL\Upload\. If your users upload a lot of Contacts or large files, you may also need to configure the upload limit of the Content Manager Explorer Web site.
Procedure
- If you want to change the default upload location for imports performed from Content Manager Explorer, open the file %TRIDION_HOME%\web\WebUI\WebRoot\Configuration\System.config and change the value of the
<Tridion.UploadDirectory> element.
- If you believe that the current maximum size for uploads to IIS is insufficient to accommodate the size of the Contacts or Keywords that your users will be uploading through Content Manager Explorer, open %TRIDION_HOME%\web\WebUI\WebRoot\web.config for editing.
- In the
<system.webServer> section, set the maximum allowed content length in bytes:
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="MAXSIZE" />
</requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>
where MAXSIZE is the maximum GUI upload size in bytes.
- In the
<system.web> section, set the maximum request length in bytes:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="MAXSIZE"/>
where MAXSIZE is the maximum GUI upload size in bytes.
