Increase upload limit to be use with Nextcloud

[kbarbora]

I had tried to increase the upload file size without success.
client_max_body_size parameter seems useless
Does anyone were able to fix this issue?

I believe has to be modified in the proxy, since I modified the config in nextcloud container and looks like the limits are good.

Hi @kbarbora

In order to update the nginx option client_max_body_size you must do the following:

1. Update the limit at the ./conf.d/uploadsize.conf

2. Start the proxy with the option --use-nginx-conf-files

Thanks, I actually modified the nginx.tmpl and added client_max_body_size=20G in server, location and main blocks and worked. However, I see that the upload speed of nextcloud is limited to 10mb/s, really slow for a SSD setup. Some people suggested to disable HTTP/2 in nginx, any thoughts?

The nginx.tmpl should not be edited directly, as my suggestion, once we always use the updated version of nginx-proxy, and about the http/2 you must check in nginx-proxy as well.
