Article ID: 165833

Microsoft Visual InterDev 1.0 Standard Edition

This article was previously published under Q165833

SYMPTOMS

If you add large files (100 kilobytes or larger) to a project over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), Visual InterDev may stop responding (hang) while it waits for those files to be copied to the server.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the large files are not placed on the server. Therefore, the add file operation never completes.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:

Physically place the large files on the server.
Decrease the size of the files that you add to the project.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

This bug was corrected in Visual InterDev 6.0 with Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0. For more information about IIS, refer to the following Microsoft Web site:

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a new Web project.
Point to an SSL server, and then click Connect using SSL.
Add a file to the project that is larger than 100 kilobytes.
