Can't upload mp3 file?

[eeeee]

More info:
With empty file permission list, its possible to upload .jpg for example, but not .mp3

So something else must be stopping it? Its not file size, as it wasn't big file

Did you restart NodeBB after making the settings change?

Also check your nodebb/webserver error logs, a generic error message might be from nginx if upload file size is too big.

[eeeee]

@julian yes restarted and rebuilt.
where on the server is the error log for this? I will look

[baris]

The nodebb logs are in logs/output.log in the nodebb folder. The nginx logs are usually at /var/log/nginx/error.log

[eeeee]

ok there is error in nginx

client intended to send too large a body: 1058854 bytes

The file is 1MB and I had set upload limit to 4096kb

[eeeee]

so does nginx have its own upload limit, and how do I change that?

[baris]

Yes nginx does have its own limit you can increase it by adding client_max_body_size 5M; in your nginx config.

[eeeee]

Thanks @baris that has fixed the issue
