here it is missing the line number or code.

Hi Yuri,

I was going to suggest modifying the value for max_size in your _javascript_/auto/88_uploadmethod_file.js but then realised that the concept of max_size is only in a local modification I made.  So I have written some instructions for how to modify your own 88_uploadmethod_file.js:

https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Limiting_Upload_File_Size

If you (or anyone else on the list that wants to try this) could tell me how following these instructions goes, that would be useful.  In case there are any corrections I need to make to them.

Regards

David Newman

Yes, it was it! Thanks a lot!

When you hit the limit, the _javascript_ does not complain. Is there a way to intercept the Apache event denying the upload? Or it is better to have the _javascript_ to check itself for the limit?

Hi Yuri,

I suspect this may be an Apache restriction on LimitRequestBody [1].  The default value for this is 1073741824 bytes which is 1 GiB.  I think you can put this in any Apache configuration file but as you want to make sure this is maintained if you migrate your repository, I would recommend adding it to your archive's securevhost.conf, as I would assume you have HTTPS enabled and therefore file uploads would only happen over HTTPS.  A setting something like:

LimitRequestBody 2147483648

Would up the max upload limit to 2GB, once you reload your webserver.

Hi!

  I've just discovered that I can upload until 1GB without any problem
(progress bar working correctly). If I upload above 1GB, the upload bar
stay at 0% and never move, and no upload is done. In the browser, I can
see it calls /cgi/users/ajax/upload_progress?progressid=<a string> about
every 1 or 2 seconds, and the transferred bytes are zero. Below 1GB, I
can see the number of transferred bytes progressing.

  How can I check what is the problem? It is Eprints 3.3.15
