Check the Webserver's (e.g. Apache) file size limit. It may be set to some
small value.

HTH,

Thanks for responding Jeffrey

but i am new to rails ,so where do i find Webserver file size limit ,am
running
mongrel as server and one more thing i would like to mention is when am
trying to upload large file (320 mb),file is being uploaded to phyical
location but i am getting error like

Invalid argument -
//192.168.147.27/Smruti/streams/predator_720x480_5mbps_30fps_17minclip.264.filepart

When i looked into the streams folder file is there...

[radhames brito]

I don't know Mongrel, but I'd look in the Mongrel configuration file. I
expect Mongrel is cutting off or aborting the file transfer and then throwing
the InvalidArgument exception.

In Nginx, the setting is:

client_max_body_size 0; # don't limit the upload file size

In Apache, the setting is:

LimitRequestBody 500000

Look for something similar.

HTH,
Jeffrey

Jeffrey i edit the code and things starts working for me

#this model file
class DataFile < ActiveRecord::Base

def self.save(upload)
name = upload['datafile'].original_filename

directory = "c:/dm"

# create the file path
path = File.join(directory, name)
# write the file
File.open(path, "wb") { |f| f.write(upload['datafile'].read) }

target="//192.168.147.17/Smruti/streams"
File.copy(path,target)

end
end
i added two lines
target="//192.168.147.17/Smruti/streams"
File.copy(path,target)
ans i changed
directory = "c:/dm"
and things are working for me
but could you tell me what was happening before why am getting
