<![CDATA[Attaching 5 MB image to task results in "413 Request Entity Too Large"]]>I get the following error when trying to attach/upload a 4.6 MB image to a Vikunja task:

413 Request Entity Too Large
nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu)

21c74174-17db-4f16-8647-dcdd41d0a452-image.png

Reading a few other threads here related to this error message (but for different apps) one of the recommendations was to increase the RAM. I did so, from 256 MB to 1 GB; however, the error remains when trying to upload.

Any suggested solutions from here?

I have fixed it now, can you please update and try?

Is that what you mean for me to check for?

files:
  # The path where files are stored basepath: 
/app/data/files/ # relative to the binary
  # The maximum size of a file, as a human-readable string.
  # Warning: The max size is limited 2^64-1 bytes due to the underlying datatype
  maxsize: 20MB

  • Reducing the size of the image to ~2 MB does not help
  • But I can upload an image that is about 100KB
