Problems Syncing Very Large Files

Server
,
1

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install ownCloud Link
  2. Setup HTTPS for domain name Link
  3. Create mySQL database
  4. Setup Redis caching Link
  5. Turn on encryption inside owncloud settings

Expected behavior

Files up to the maximum file size limit stated (10 GB) should upload without a problem.

Actual behavior

Extremely large files fail to upload whether it be from a desktop client or the web app. My test file is typically a 4 GB operating system iso.

I have gone through as many troubleshooting methods as possible. I've made a post about this before here Link. I wiped my server entirely, reinstalled ownCloud, and made no changes to it and it still failed to upload large files over the internet. If I am on my local network it works fine. At this point I'm out of ideas with what to do.

If there is a difference between "over the internet" and "local network" then just one of the many timeouts in the webserver, PHP or similar are kicking in.

Unfortunately there is "single" solution for this possible so watching logfiles like the one of your webserver, the PHP error log or the data/owncloud.org might help you debugging this issue.

I've been monitoring that, the problem is I don't know how to fix them. I have changed the timeout values with no success. If you could recommend settings to change for the problem, I would really appreciate it. Maybe I missed one of the possible options.

All known limits which might be required to raise are documented at the following resources [1] or [2]. Maybe you have missed one listed there.

I think the problem was the router I was using. It was an Apple Time capsule router. I've since switched to Google Wifi (connecting using an ethernet cable) and the problem has disappeared.
