Import CSV email subscribers continuously times out
Hi, I'm having issues importing my mailing list. I have 8000+ subscribers to add from a CSV file, but the server times out after only importing a few hundred at a time. Is there a better way to add this large a list?
I've been able to get up to 1854 added, but now even when I split the CSV into smaller lists, it won't add any more.
A quick response with any suggestions would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex
Hi Alex,
The problem you are facing is probably caused by the time required to process the file. I would suggest to locate the httpRuntime tag in the web.config file of your project and add the following property:
executionTimeout="number"(Int32)
See more details on the subject at MSDN.
Thanks Pavel, we'll give it a try.
