Nginx Error 413

Question

When I try to upload a file to my site, I\'m getting the Nginx \"413 Request Entity Too Large\" error, however in my nginx.conf file I\'ve already explicitly stated the max size

Answer 1

Not knowing the version of your nginx build and what modules it was built with makes this tough, but try the following:

1. Copy your client_max_body_size 300M; line into the location / { } part of your vhost config. I'm not sure if it's overriding the default (which is 1 MB) properly.

2. Are you using nginx_upload_module? If so make sure you have the upload_max_file_size 300MB; line in your config as well.
