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?

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.
