Server configuration

Operating system: Fedora 29

Web server: Apache 2.4

Database: MySQL

PHP version: 7.2

ownCloud version: 10.0.10.4

I can not upload files greater than about 200mb with WebDAV. I mount the WebDAV volume on Windows and MacOS X and I’m getting the same problem.

I can upload the files just fine from the web interface.

This is the error in the owncloud.log file:
{“reqId”:“XK@NAZAvnr5LaoycCyBK8QAAAEM”,“level”:4,“time”:“2019-04-11T18:53:09+00:00”,“remoteAddr”:“172.16.2.88”,“user”:“Bob”,“app”:“webdav”,“method”:“PUT”,“url”:"/oc/remote.php/webdav/2014-02-02%2017.09.11.mp4",“message”:“Exception: HTTP/1.1 400 expected filesize 472688419 got 237666304: {“Exception”:“Sabre\\DAV\\Exception\\BadRequest”,“Message”:“expected filesize 472688419 got 237666304”,“Code”:0,“Trace”:”#0 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/lib\/composer\/sabre\/dav\/lib\/DAV\/Server.php(1129): OCA\\DAV\\Connector\\Sabre\\File->put(Resource id #63)\n#1 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/lib\/composer\/sabre\/dav\/lib\/DAV\/CorePlugin.php(513): Sabre\\DAV\\Server->updateFile(‘2014-02-02 17.0…’, Resource id #63, NULL)\n#2 [internal function]: Sabre\\DAV\\CorePlugin->httpPut(Object(Sabre\\HTTP\\Request), Object(Sabre\\HTTP\\Response))\n#3 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/lib\/composer\/sabre\/event\/lib\/EventEmitterTrait.php(105): call_user_func_array(Array, Array)\n#4 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/lib\/composer\/sabre\/dav\/lib\/DAV\/Server.php(479): Sabre\\Event\\EventEmitter->emit(‘method:PUT’, Array)\n#5 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/lib\/composer\/sabre\/dav\/lib\/DAV\/Server.php(254): Sabre\\DAV\\Server->invokeMethod(Object(Sabre\\HTTP\\Request), Object(Sabre\\HTTP\\Response))\n#6 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/apps\/dav\/appinfo\/v1\/webdav.php(64): Sabre\\DAV\\Server->exec()\n#7 \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/remote.php(165): require_once(’\/var\/www\/html\/o…’)\n#8 {main}",“File”:"\/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\/apps\/dav\/lib\/Connector\/Sabre\/File.php",“Line”:227}"}

Have you looked at this page of the docs?

https://doc.owncloud.com/server/10.0/admin_manual/configuration/files/big_file_upload_configuration.html

Dmitry,

Yes I have. This is my .user.ini:
upload_max_filesize=16G
post_max_size=16G
memory_limit=512M
mbstring.func_overload=0
always_populate_raw_post_data=-1
default_charset=‘UTF-8’
output_buffering=0
max_input_time 3600
max_execution_time 3600

I don’t see any issues with the Apache configuration…There aren’t any errors in the Apache log files.

Most of the configuration issues discussed in that link relate to files over 2GB, I can’t even get to 200MB.

Hey,

i did the following search https://central.owncloud.org/search?q="expected%20filesize"%20"got" and found the following FAQ about this message:

5

Tom42,

Yes, I’ve tried those. PRoblem is, most of those solutions suggested are 4-5 years old and for many versions ago.

Seems file size upload issues are an ongoing issue with Owncloud. according to searches. Wonder why they can’t put a nail in this issue once and for all.

6

Hey,

if i’m understanding the items listed in the FAQ as well as in the big upload documentation linked by @dmitry most upload problems concerning a specific file size are configuration problems or bugs in either Apache (or any other web server in use) or PHP. And i think such kind of items are also still valid even if 4-5 years old.

Not sure how they can do any fixes from ownCloud for such configuration issues or bugs the server admin needs to fix / reconfigure. :frowning_face:

I’ve just started experiencing this after upgrading from 10.1.0.4 to 10.1.1.1 on my Fedora 29 box. I upload gigabyte files at least twice a week without a hitch now my Windows client is struggling with a 400Mb file and nothing else has changed. The log repeatedly shows:

I followed the same procedure for years to upgrade making sure OC was in maintenance, stopping Apache, applying the update then running the upgrade before restarting Apache and disabling maintenance mode.

Hey,

i’m not sure if this update is related. I have checked the changes between 10.1.0 and 10.1.1 (found on https://owncloud.org/changelog/server/) and it doesn’t look to me that any code related to uploading files where touched.

Could it be possible that some new configuration or PHP modules got updated / active during the update (e.g. due to a server restart where the changes/updates took place some days/weeks/months ago) which is now causing this issue?

9

It’s always possible and I normally check and apply updates each Monday and this has never happened before even when it’s needed to update ownCloud in the past - I always check what DNF wants to do before I let it go ahead, and as I saw that ownCloud came up I made sure to close it down as I mention before.

Smaller files are just fine, and when it hits a larger one I can keep forcing a sync and the client eventually uploads the entire thing. Downloads are fine.

10

This must be a Fedora 29 issue then, as I’m on Fedora 29 as well.

I also tried installing NextCloud 15 to see if that had the same issue, and it does. Exact same behavior.

So our commonality is Fedora 29 then at this time.

Oh joy, so I wonder what’s been broken in F29 then?

On my system looks like PHP was upgraded to 7.2.17-1 amongst other things:

@Virtual have you come across a way to fix this? I’ve been looking and checked for new updates to Fedora and nothing so far.

Nothing. I’ve searched and asked on several social media forums and not a single response.

Given that Fedora 29 has been around for almost 6 months now, I’m surprised this hasn’t come up before.

I suspect it’s a recent update to either Apache or PHP, so I’m checking daily for updates to see if anything gets applied and then test ownCloud.
