CRM 4 upgrade fails with Attachment size too large

Hi
I'm having problems with an upgrade from CRM4 ti 2011 that exits with the error Attachment size too large. What can I do about this? The CRM 4 was running with no known errors and it's a redeployment upgrade to a clean machine. I haven't found any good solutions to this problem, but I doubt that I'm the first having the problem
Thanks

Have you tried increasing the limit in 2011 before bringing in the database? http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kennethw/archive/2011/08/20/how-to-increase-crm-2011-attachment-file-size-from-5mb-to-maximum-32mb.aspx

Thanks Leon, I have done this, although isn't that a per-organization-setting rather than a per-server-setting?
Do you know if there are any other settings that can have bearing on the attachment size?

That's what I get for trying to answer forum questions between meetings, quite right :)
OK, so do we know it is an attachment causing the problem? If so, there is the inelegant option of locating it, removing it for upgrade and then re-attaching it (assuming it is only a few causing the problem).

That's one of the problems I'm facing, I know what the log from the import says, and that's it. I'm a bit lost for options atm and thinking that the next step is to try to upgrade the org on another server to make sure it's not something else that's causing this. The funny thing is that it's really a shortage of similar problems out there which is sort of a bad sign. You don't want to be the first one with problems :)

Now I have tried to upgrade this on another server with the same result. Any ideas of how to get past this problem which I find a bit weird considering it's a working CRM 4.0 organization that I'm upgrading.
Thanks

Hi
1. Any idea what is the attachment size which is failing while upgrading CRM 4. CRM 2011 can be adjusted to import 32 mb of attachment size by changes in System settings.
2. In CRM 4, apart from system setting option for changing attachment size, there is more option to change allowed attachment size. Here goes the description:

Hello CRMDevlpr,
The attachment file size in settings is per-organization if I'm not mistaken, that isn't an option since I'm importing the organization.
Another funny thing is that it is possible to import the organization to another CRM 4 server, very strange imho.
EDIT: I've tried to export the imported CRM4-organization since our server had e higher UR than the customer's, no change. Still error as below:

I acctually made this work in the end. The file size in the CRM 4 organization was set to 0 which seems to be ok for CRM 4 but not in CRM 2011.
Published a blog article about it here: http://rickardnorstrom.blogspot.se/2013/01/crm-40-upgrade-quits-with-error.html
