413 Request Entity Too Large

Question

I use nginX/1.6 and laravel when i posted data to server i get this error 413 Request Entity Too Large. i tried many solutions as bellow

1- set client_max_bo         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issue but in docker. when I faced this issue, added client_max_body_size 120M; to my Nginx server configuration,

nginx default configuration file path is /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf

server {
    client_max_body_size 120M;
    ...

it resizes max body size to 120 megabytes.

after that, I did add these three lines to my PHP docker file

RUN echo "max_file_uploads=100" >> /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-max_file_uploads.ini
RUN echo "post_max_size=120M" >> /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-post_max_size.ini
RUN echo "upload_max_filesize=120M" >> /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/docker-php-ext-upload_max_filesize.ini

since docker PHP image automatically includes all setting files from the path (/usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/) into php.ini file, PHP configuration file will change by these three lines and the issue must disappear
