[DEPLOYMENT] Problem increasing upload size

[Kulturserver]

Describe the issue
Although we increased the uploadlimit serverwise, we aren't able to upload images or files larger than 2 MB via our open form installation

Deployment Environment

• OpnForm Version: latest
• Hosting Platform: [Self-hosted server]
• OS: [Linux 6.1.0-30-amd64 Debian 12]

Deployment Method

• Docker

Steps Taken
Describe the steps you've taken to deploy the application:

1. following docker installation guide
2. run .env scripts
3. created own domain

Error Messages
This error is seen in the inspector when trying to upload a large file (forms-dev.culturebase.org being the domain we set up): Bk3RVgqs.js:19
POST https://forms-dev.culturebase.org/api/upload-file 422 (Unprocessable Content)

Configuration Files
If relevant, provide snippets of your configuration files (make sure to remove any sensitive information).

Logs
To help us diagnose the issue, please provide the following logs:

• laravel.log in api/storage/logs on the back-end image

• Nuxt logs in the client docker logs

• those are both empty, we cannot find them

Additional context
we checked with the existing issues #570 and followed the steps there, but with no result

Hey, 422 is a validation error. Any content/payload in the response?
By default the limit should be of 50mb and we don't currently offer a way of changing this in the self-hosted version

[Kulturserver]

I see this in the response: Bk3RVgqs.js:14 Hydration completed but contains mismatches.

And 50MB is fine with us, but somehow everything larger than 2MB seems to get blocked, smaller files/images work fine.

[Kulturserver]

Is this the information you needed? Let me know, if you need more.

Hey can you please take a look at this post on our Discord: https://discord.com/channels/1203373199765545000/1203373200218791947/1310762475129671781

[Kulturserver]

Thanks for the reply - we already enhanced that and restarted the docker and nginx accordingly, but unfortunately it didn't fix the issue.

[Kulturserver]

Do you have any other suggestions? Any help would be highly appreciated - thanks in advance!

[JhumanJ]

Hey @Kulturserver I just updated the docker images and setup. This can maybe make things easier (there's a php.ini file that can be changed)

Can you please share more details about the request/response etc?

[Kulturserver]

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, we run into a new problem when trying to install the new image.

We deleted everything and updated the git repo in /opt/opnform
if we call docker-compose up -d it stops after a short while:

Here it stops, the fetch doesn't get finalized. Are there any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

[JhumanJ]

It seems like you're rebuilding the image instead of using the one on docker hub - any reasons why?
We included a script to help you get started here: https://docs.opnform.com/deployment/docker

[Kulturserver]

Thank you very much - we will look into this.
