Unbound content length for thredds
100%
Description
In order to support http upload of large files, we need to remove the limitation on http content-length introduced by nginx.
According to http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#client_max_body_size setting the limit to 0 would permit us an unbounded content-length.
Can you please configure nginx on thredds-d-d4s.d4science.org in order to test this settings?

Yes, just done.
I'm not sure that disabling it altogether is the right choice, though

I agree it's quite drastic. Checking on production instance, the larger files are about 10GB, so maybe we can set... 20GB? What do you suggest?
Updated by Andrea Dell'Amico about 8 years ago
We can set it to 20GB, if we need more we can change it again later. It's a 10 seconds operations that does not stop the service.

preconfigured pre and prod so that nginx will permit uploads up to 20GB. I didn't install the change because nginx is not yet used on those instances.
