I'm using Nextcloud with a Docker image in a docker-nginx-reverse-proxy-companion-letsencrypt type of environment.

My problem is

In my admin parameters the max file size is set to the default value though (511mb). How can i debug that?
All the files that cause a problem in the syncing process seem to be heavier than 1mo. (my folder is made of .md files notes and a bunch of images. Small ones work. Big ones cause me problems. Same for pdf and other type of files biggest than ~1.2mo or something.) Is this a known issue?

Are you sure your proxy is configured to handle large files?

See our examples

I've seen nothing related to this in @evertramos provided docker files https://github.com/evertramos/docker-nextcloud-letsencrypt/. Do you have any issue like this mate?

@SnowMB i'm looking into the link you provided and will update here soon

Hello @Julianoe!

@SnowMB is probably right!

I did not have this issue with small files... but with some large files above 1 Gb I had to set the client_max_body_size option in the NGINX configuration.

You could add this file uploadsize.conf to your ./data/conf.d folder, restart your nginx-web container, and test it.

I have tested with 5Gb file size, it passes it through.

Seems to be working like a charm! Thanks to both of you i'm rocking a cloud :+1: and will for a few friends.

Just for reference... I have updated our webproxy so you could have your special conf files as optional.

Just pull the latest version of our webproxy, set the option USE_NGINX_CONF_FILES=true at your .env file and run our start script.

Cheers!
