How to increase the maximum attachment size for e-mailed reports (4295417)

1. Close the Report Manager
2. Close the Configuration Manger
3. Stop the Enterprise Reporter Server Service
4. On the ER server navigate to:
    - For ER 2.0.1: C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Enterprise Reporter\Server
    - For ER 2.5 and later: C:\Program files\Quest\Enterprise Reporter\Server
5. Backup the ReporterServer.exe.config file
6. Open the ReporterServer.exe.config file in notepad
7. Add the following between the <appSettings> and </appSettings> section where XXXX is the maximum attachment size in bytes:
    <add key="MaxAllowedSize" value="XXXX"/>
   For example, to increase the size to 5MB the entry should be: <add key="MaxAllowedSize" value="5120"/>

Please note, after an upgrade, the custom attachment size change will need to be made again to the ReporterServer.exe.config file.

Enhancement Request VSTS003222 (to have the email attachment size to be more transparent , default size increased, and to have custom settings persist through an upgrade) has been submitted to Development for consideration in a future release of Enterprise Reporter.

Please note: If you have an Enterprise Reporter version prior to 3.0, any folder/registry paths referenced may contain the non-Quest branded path instead of ‘Quest’
