File size limit on the wiki?
« on: February 05, 2012, 08:44:21 AM »
I'm trying to upload an image (.png file) to the wiki, and it keeps coming up as just black. I'm thinking it might exceed some predefined limit on the size of the file? Is there such a limit?

The limit should be 32mb. The server itself would bounce the request though - it shouldn't get through at all.

It looks like your second attempt uploaded fine? Not sure what happened to your first, there.

Odd.

You are correct, but when I uploaded the second version, it looked just like the first. Now it appears as you say.

Thanks for the help!

Oh right.

When you upload a new version of any file, you'll want to shift+reload (and tell others to do so). It copies the file to the same place. Wiki is dumb like that.

Apologies for resurrecting the thread, but I am getting errors from the Wiki when I try uploading an animated GIF file larger than 2MB, way smaller than the 32MB limit mentioned above.

This file is bigger than the server is configured to allow.
Maximum file size: 2 MB (a file on your computer)

Previously I had no problems uploading files that were 6MB or so.  This one is 7MB.

Yeah I just noticed the config isn't taking for some reason a few days ago.

Will be looking into it.

I'd love to be able to upload bigger stuff to the wiki; quite a few of my gifs get heavily neutered due to the file size.

So a +1 to looking into increasing the 2mb limit.

This should be fixed now, apologies for the delay. I'm not sure why it wasn't loading the config. : /
