Hi Shen, thanks for this PR.

I cannot see the "File too large" window appearing.
When trying to send a 5+GB file, I still have this error log:

[Thu Apr 04 10:45:44.134866 2024] [php:warn] [pid 17999] [client ::1:56220] PHP Warning:  POST Content-Length of 5214864626 bytes exceeds the limit of 8388608 bytes in Unknown on line 0, referer: http://localhost:8080/document_repository/

JS console log:

There are 2 related php.ini settings that affect the maximum size (I can't remember the settings off the top of my head, but they should be in the documentation.) It's possible that the code is checking one but not the other.

Still having the same error after applying these config.

@regis Could you try to upload a 2GB file to test the popup window? It seems like you got the network issue(Chrome) when you upload a 5 GB file.

@kongtiaowang I will try that. Is the issue on Chrome based browsers? I am mostly using Firefox.

Same error on Firefox with ~1.9GB archive file.

Tested with the same file on 26.0 vm with firefox. Looks ok on it.

Shen and I tested this on 2 VMs.
I had some issues with my config because of the SSH tunnel, it seems.
Using my VM through SSH tunnel raise the error, but using it with the VPN does not.
