Import data file error

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by HenrijsAv 17

Want to update BC21 CU5 test data base (separate data base for development) with data from production environment, using export/import from a data file functionality.

 

When importing data file (122 MB), error about time and size limitation pumps up.

 

Does anybody have experience, which settings should be changed to avoid time limitation? Our test database is BC OnPrem version on our servers.

    Hi, You need to check the IIS level (web server) settings.
