.NET Core “Kestrel Timeout” — The Hidden Request Body Limit

- 09.12.25 - ErcanOPAK

Many APIs fail mysteriously with:

“Unexpected end of request content.”

Because the request body timeout is too low.

✔ Fix

builder.WebHost.ConfigureKestrel(o =>
{
    o.Limits.RequestBodyTimeout = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5);
});

💡 Life-Saver For:

  • file uploads

  • slower mobile clients

  • integrations with old systems
