Uploading files which are bigger than maximum upload size.

• If you want to upload file bigger than maximum upload size you must type the file URL to the following input field:

• Only admin can see this field. NOTE: absolute path to the file must be used
• After typing the file URL and clicking on the Save button there are 3 possibilities:

1. Loading bar near the Save button:

That means that the file is uploading and everything is fine.

2. Error notification:

It's probable that the local metadata field is not updated in the database, you should run dspace database migrate force in the [dspace]/bin. See more: dspace database migrate force

3. Warning and Successful notifications:

It means wrong path path was specified and the file is not updating!

• After uploading you should see the file in the Uploaded files.

Important:

• Do not forget to change upload limit size on Nginx
• Tomcat which is running on Docker could have limited size and therefore attempts to upload big file to /temp directory would fail. In this case, increase size or create new volume.
• If you want to test this functionality, you can check out this page
