Exception information:

Exception type: ConfigurationErrorsException

Exception message: The value for the property ‘maxRequestLength’ is not valid. The error is: The value must be inside the range 0-2097151. (C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\exchweb\EWS\web.config line 2376)

We need to modify the “web.config” file which can be found here “C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\exchweb\EWS\” you need to open the “web.config” file using Notepad and then use the “find” feature in notepad to quickly locate the following line in the file

<system.web>

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength=”52428800″ />

The default value is to high “52428800” so you need to change it as follows

<system.web>

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength=”2066661″ />

The final step in resolving the issue is to save the changes you have made to the “web.config” file and restarting the “Default Website” under IIS Manager (Administrative Tools)
