How to upload a heavy .tar.bz2 package in a conda repository ?

Hello,

I cannot upload a 50MB .tar.bz2 package. Here’s the error in nexus.log:

2026-08-26 11:47:23,764+0200 ERROR [qtp468666864-24891] org.sonatype.nexus.coreui.UploadResource - Unable to perform upload to repository
java.io.IOException: Package exceeds maximum decompressed size of 100 MB. Possible zip bomb attack.

How this 100MB limit can be increased ?

Thanks !

Good question! I’m not familiar with that error, but I think we’ve opened a bug ticket based on a similar comment on GitHub (which may have come from your organization, come to think of it). I’ll track that and respond when we know more.
