Hi there,

What happens when you debug the code and set a breakpoint right before the mail gets sent? What do you / how's the mail message constructed?

And is this with the standard solution that comes with the book? Do you have the book and did you follow the installation instructions?

Thank you Imar that was quick reply.

Yes I debug the code by setting breakpoint its always shows emailBody="" ResourceID = 0 and Email table dont show any content in text which is NULL. I solved with Resource table , Resource table showing values now.But Email table is blank which is generating blank mail to recepient.

I made some changes to code by removing Login controls instead of using membership(removed ASPNETDB)and created custom login with Username and pwd.Does this made any changes?

I followed all installation instructions to setup project.

Thank you

Thank you

Hi jrweb,

emailBody is built up in a couple of different places in the code, so I don't know what location you are talking about exactly.

However, it doesn't get a value just like that; it gets a value from a database or from other variables. So, you need to look into that. Follow the code that builds up emailBody and see where it gets its data. Maybe the SqlDataReader doesn't return a record for some reason.

I think the root cause is the empty Email table....

Glad it's working now.
For the benefit of the archive of this forum, would you mind sharing *how* you solved it? That might help a fellow programmer in the future...

Its very simple mistake.
In table Email 'text' column is Empty which caused to generate Blank email.

But when i try to send files upto 1GB I'm getting the following error.It works great for small files when coming to big files im getting error.

Error:<br/>
Maximum request length exceeded.

I tried by adding in web.confif the following code:

<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1097152" executionTimeout="18000"/>

even then error occurs which is:

The value for the property 'maxRequestLength' is not valid. The error is: The value must be inside the range 0-2097151.

Can you please help how to solve it.

Thank you

Where and when do you get that error? I can successfully set it to values up to 2097151 as the error suggests.

Personally, I would look into other means to process large files like that (FTP for example). Dealing with files this big in a web site is likely to get you into trouble....
