Uploading large document file in TFS

[f***@gmail.com]

Hi

When I try to upload a large file (889 Mb) into the documents part of
a Team Foundation Server project Visual Studio will hang for a few
minutes and then display the following error.

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------


Steps to reproduce:
1. Open team explorer in Visual Studio
2. Expand a TFS project, documents, a document folder.
3. Right click and choose "Upload Document..."
4. Open the large file

It works well to upload smaller documents, such as 571 Kb. Is there a
limit in the filesize that TFS can handle? Anybody else that has the
same problem?

Thanks in advance!
