Hi,
I’m running the XWiki 10.7 Tomcat official docker image with a Postgres-DB.
The problem is that I can’t upload attachments larger than 1 MB even though bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=object was set to 30MB by default and is now set to 30GB or something like that.
There appears to be no log entries in tomcat/logs/ but I’m not sure what I’d be looking for and in which log file.
Thanks for all help,
Stefan
Hi, I took the time to test this and it worked fine for me.
What you did seems ok. On my side I’ve modified the max upload size from 33554432 bytes to 3355443200 (ie from 32MB to 3.2GB).
Then it started working and I could upload a 250MB file with no problem. It took about 20 seconds.
I’ve also added a few zeroes to the max upload size even though it shouldn’t have been necessary. As mentioned, it seems to fail from 1MB upwards.
The upload dialog appears, it appears to upload and to finish and then “an error occurred” if the file is larger than 1MB:
My main question: How would you debug something like this? If there is code that makes the error message appear doesn’t that code log that error somewhere?! Perhaps with a more helpful error message.
Yes you should find all problems in the xwiki log file. It’s located in your application server log file. If you use tomcat then it’s in catalina.out.
In the container there is a catalina.2018-10-10.log in the logs dir of tomcat:
root@xwiki-test-0:/usr/local/tomcat/logs# ls -la
total 192
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 Oct 10 08:56 .
drwxr-sr-x 1 root staff 4096 Sep 12 21:41 ..

-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Oct 10 08:56 manager.2018-10-10.log
That contains nothing about the file or the upload.

Yes, I do.
ok so that explains it. I’ve recently noticed that the xwiki logs do not appear in the catalina.out files when using the XWiki Docker image. I’ve just created Loading...
You should have them in the console where you started “docker run” and if you ran it in the background you can issue a “docker logs”.
I get an entry in that log. Unfortunately, it’s not really helpful:
2018-10-10 14:12:20,008 [http://[...]/bin/download/Sandbox/WebHome/XWikiLogo.png] WARN c.x.x.p.XWikiPluginManager - downloadAttachment failed for plugin [image]: null

The entry is related to the page load and not the attachment upload.
Indeed; not very useful…
I don’t know what’s the problem. All I know is that it can work since it worked when I tried the XWiki docker image so my guess is that it’s your environment. If I had to guess I’d say that it’s a permission issue in your permanent directory (the volume mapped to your host).
Sorry the reply took so long, I didn’t have the time to play with xwiki.
I did some tests and the problem was with the kubernetes ingress. The annotation
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: 50m
fixed it.
Thanks a lot for your help. The fact that it worked for you helped me a lot.
It’s nginx default limit. add client_max_body_size 1000m; in the /etc/nginx/conf.d/xwiki.conf file
