php - 413 Request Entity Too Large - File Upload Issue

Question

I am trying to upload 30MB file on my server and its not working.

1. When I upload 30MB file, the page loads "Page Not Found"

2. When I upload a 3MB file, I receive "413 Request Entity Too Large" with nginx/0.6.32

I am trying to find nginx so I can increase "client_max_body_size" but I am unable to find nginx installed on my server. I even tried running:

vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

or

vi /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf

to check if the config file exists, but I couldnt find it on my server.

Is there anyway to resolve this issue? Or do I have to installed nginx on my server.

EDIT:

I have made all necessary changes in my php.ini files,

post_max_size 128M
upload_max_filesize 100M
memory_limit 256M

Thanks, Raju

Edit the conf file of nginx:

nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Add a line in the http section:

http {
    client_max_body_size 100M;
}

Doen't use MB it will not work, only the M!

Also do not forget to restart nginx

systemctl restart nginx
