Issue

  • Whenever a user is trying to upload a file/document in Document & Media portlet, the error "HTTP response 413 and Request Entity Too Large message" is thrown.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.2

Resolution

  • This error usually occurs when a request made from a client is too large to be processed by the webserver. If your webserver is setting a particular HTTP request size limit, users may come across a 413 request entity too large response.
  • This issue will be resolved by adjusting the file size limit in the web server or application server.
  • Also, need any further assistance in setting the configurations, we have a channel called "Global Service Team" that works primarily in custom development and implementations.
