HTTP 413 Error When Uploading Files in Kubernetes Environment

When you upload a file to a web application running under Kubernetes Ingress,

you might encounter a

413 Payload Too Large

error.

In such cases, you should modify the Ingress settings as follows:

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: torico-tools-ingress
  namespace: torico
  annotations:
    # Against http413
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: "0"

If you want to completely ignore the size limit, set nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: "0"
