Ah, the dreaded status code 413! Been there, done that.
First thing—double-check your nginx config. You mentioned client_max_body_size, but did you restart nginx after making changes? Sometimes it’s the simple stuff.
Also, if you’re using PHP, check post_max_size and upload_max_filesize in php.ini. Those can sneakily override your server settings.
For testing, I love using Postman to simulate large uploads. Helps pinpoint where the issue is.
And hey, if all else fails, chunking is your friend. Split the file and send it in pieces.
