I have an form on a server running IIS 7.5 that allows the user to attach multiple files. However I receive an error when trying to attach .docx, .pptx, and .xlsx files.

I have verified the correct MIME types are set on the server. ie:

.docx - application/openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document

There are no errors appearing in the event viewer or the IIS logs, but I did find one in HTTPERR: 

HTTP/1.1 POST /BLA/Primary/inc_attachFile.asp 400 25 BadRequest BLA
HTTP/1.1 POST /BLA/Primary/inc_attachFile.asp 400 25 Connection_Dropped BLA

The odd thing is that i can successfully attach a .docx while in IE on the server itself, but when I try on a workstation I get the error. I've tried adding additional rights to several accounts on the folder but it made no difference.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Sal, So there are no errors appearing in the event viewer or IIS log but I did find one in HTTPERR: HTTP/1.1 POST /BLA/Primary/inc_attachFile.asp 400 25 BadRequest BLA and HTTP/1.1 POST /BLA/Primary/inc_attachFile.asp 400 25 Connection_Dropped BLA The odd thing is that i can successfully attach a .docx while in IE on the server itself, but when I try on a workstation is get the error.
