maxReceivedMessageSize and maxBufferSize in app.config

Question

How to increase maxReceivedMessageSize and maxBufferSize parameters in app.config file to 2000000 before running the application.

Answer 1

You need to do that on your binding, but you'll need to do it on both Client and Server. Something like:

<system.serviceModel>     <bindings>         <basicHttpBinding>             <binding maxBufferSize="64000000" maxReceivedMessageSize="64000000" />         </basicHttpBinding>     </bindings> </system.serviceModel> 

Answer 2

You can do that in your app.config. like that:

maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647"  

(The max value is Int32.MaxValue )

Or in Code:

WSHttpBinding binding = new WSHttpBinding(); binding.Name = "MyBinding"; binding.MaxReceivedMessageSize = Int32.MaxValue; 

Note:

If your service is open to the Wide world, think about security when you increase this value.
