When I tried to upload using curl command, I failed with the following error message. curl 7.79.1 (Windows) libcurl/7.79.1 Schannel Release-Date: 2021-09-22 Protocols: dict file ftp ftps http https imap imaps pop3 pop3s smtp smtps telnet tftp Features: AsynchDNS HSTS IPv6 Kerberos Largefile NTLM SPNEGO SSL SSPI UnixSockets 413 Request Entity Too Large # Request Entity Too Large The requested resource does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit. Additionally, a 301 Moved Permanently error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. We are using apache reverse proxy, and what should I do to resolve this issue? Thanks, Chang ---

You’ll need to update your Apache configuration as Nexus does not limit upload sizes.
