[Pulp-list] Pulp 3 docker: Request Entity Too Large

Tue Aug 17 14:48:52 UTC 2021

Hi,

I’m running the docker version of Pulp 3 (3.13 to be specific).

The nginx configuration in the docker container does not allow large files (packages) to be uploaded. If an (rpm) package is too large, you’ll receive an error “Request Entity Too Large”.

I’ve worked around this by modifying the nginx config as so:

location /pulp/api/v3/ {
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
            proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
            # we don't want nginx trying to do something clever with
            # redirects, we set the Host: header above already.
            proxy_redirect off;
            proxy_pass http://pulp-api;
            client_max_body_size 500m;
        }

As can be seen, the client_max_body size was increased to 500m.

Is there an easier way to change this via a parameter? Otherwise, I would have to tweak the docker config manually each time I want to use a newer version of the container.

Thank you,

J. David
