Issue

  • When a user is trying to upload the file into the document and media, it does not upload when the size is more than 10 MB.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.1
  • Liferay DXP 7.2
  • JBoss

Resolution

  • Increasemax-post-size (10485760 = 10 MB by default) on the listeners in the undertow subsystem to accept large file post requests.
    • For example, setting max-post-size to 31457280 (= 30MB) in standalone.xml file {Jboss_home}/standalone→ configuration→standalone.xml
      <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:3.1">
      <buffer-cache name="default"/>
      <server name="default-server">
      <ajp-listener name="ajp" max-post-size="31457280" socket-binding="ajp"/>
      <http-listener name="default" max-post-size="31457280" socket-binding="http" redirect-socket="https"/>
      <https-listener name="https" max-post-size="31457280" socket-binding="https" security-realm="ApplicationRealm"/>
      ...
      </server>
      ...
