    Hy there everyone !
    I have ubuntu 16.04 with nginx compiled with module pagespeed. I also have installed ISPConfig 3.1.
    Today when i try to upload some sql files into phpmyadmin i get stuck with this nginx error 413 Request Entity Too Large.
    After a long search on Google i manage to solve half o the problem by adding :
    Code:
    client_max_body_size 700M;
    location / {
    client_max_body_size 700M;
    }
    in to the ispconfig site option directives.
    Everything works great in http but in https i get this error. Any idea how to solve this ?
    Thanks
     
  2. You have probably setup above parameters for only 80 port(http). You will need to setup the same for 443(https) port as well.

    I have the same problem. My NGINX + ISPconfig 3.1 Ubuntu 16.04 VPS is responding with this nginx error 413 Request Entity Too Large, only when using HTTPS (SSL).

    Question: How do I setup so 443 (SSL) also allows maximum file upload size of 100M?

    I use this VPS primarily to host WordPress sites so have the following Directive Snippents:
    Custom php.ini settings:
    display_errors = On
    post_max_size = 99M
    upload_max_filesize = 255M
    max_execution_time = 220
    memory_limit = 256M
    max_input_vars = 2000​
    Nginx Directives:
    http {
    #...
    client_max_body_size 100m;
    }
    location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
    }
    # Add trailing slash to */wp-admin requests.
    rewrite /wp-admin$ $scheme://$host$uri/ permanent;
    location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|css|js|ico)$ {
    expires max;
    log_not_found off;
    }​
     
  5. Hi,
    This snippet coudl be for :80? Where is your 443 snippet? You will need to add that over there.

    The directive snippets in ISPConfig are for http and https. The only issue was that he added:

    http {
    #...
    client_max_body_size 100m;
    }

    which needs to be removed as you can not have http {....} inside a server block, but that's solved already in this thread in the meantime:
