I am running Drupal in Docker with Drupal-fpm, mariadb, and Nginx images. It works just fine for clean, standard installs as described in my Quick Start section of my repository at https://github.com/RightsandWrongsgit/12-factor-demo . I am now attempting to 'import' via synchronizing configurations under Drupal's administration menu an existing site Tar.gz file that is about 4M in size. I have made modifications in the php.ini file to handle greater than the default 2M size there; (elaborated in the notes in my repo README.md if you care to see the details of that point.) However, where I am hung up is dealing with the Ngnix limitations around client_max_body_size. During the attempted import, after a brief run time, Ngnix throws an error that the file size is too large and stops. The situation of too large of a file size for Ngnix upload is an existing issue addressed here nginx - client_max_body_size has no effect.
Where I am running into a roadblock is syntax for getting a client_max_body_size increase in all three locations in a Docker container environment. My pull in the Docker-compose.yml file is for 'nginx:latest' to be from local or from DockerHub if the image isn't already loaded. This image brings down its 'nginx.conf' file and I can review it within the running container on my clean, standard quick start install. The key thing from 'nginx.conf' is that it contains an http section whose last statement is 'include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf' (In other words, it is calling any additional *.conf files from that directory within the container).
And, YES, there is another *.conf in that directory in the container because I can see it and list it out for review. That additional *.conf file is actually 'default.conf' and it was placed there during my establishment of this 'volumes: - ./config/nginx/site.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:ro' via my docker-compose.yml service establishment of nginx. I can also confirm that the content of the container running the 'default.conf' file exactly matches the local hosts site.conf file. So the 'docker-compose.yml up' is putting it in the container and I see no reason that the 'nginx.conf' include statement wouldn't be pulling it into use. All this seems to work along the lines described here How to overwrite nginx default config with docker file?
Here is my problem, the 'site.conf' seems to accept the client_max_body_size statement in the server {} context but I don't seem to be able to figure out two things-- first, which location{} context to add it to or what additional location section syntax I should use and second how to add client_max_body_size to the http{} context at all. Every try I have made seem to result in an error being thrown and the nginx server image not loading within the container.
Here is the code that works just fine during the standard quick start but that doesn't truly expand the allowed file size upload and gives the nginx file size to large error:
server
{
listen 80;
root /var/www/web;
index index.php;
client_max_body_size 100M;
location / {
error_page 404 = @drupal;
}
location @drupal {
rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
How would I add this client_max_body_size statement to the http and location contexts? Per the need to do so noted here - nginx - client_max_body_size has no effect
I would really appreciate if you might suggest specific edits to the code presented above since I am a relative novice at all this and could use pretty clear help to actually make this work! Thanks
