Nginx client body max size limit

Sonatype Nexus Repository Best Practices
1

Hi,
Recently we faced an issue while uploading a large file to nexus with nginx throwing error,

413 Request Entity Too Large

413 Request Entity Too Large

nginx/1.19.10

File size we are trying to upload is of 2.7G , is it recommended to increase the nginx file limit ? I see this leads to security and performance related issues while checking online. Any suggestions on this ?

Thanks,
Ramakrishna

This is entirely decided by your environment the files you’re trying to upload.
