Content-length exceeds limit of x bytes

[mtietz]

Hey guys,

I'm currently trying to get my web application to work on production.
I have a Image upload inside of my SvelteKit App and if uploading a picture with my iPhone the size always exceeds the limit and I get

[API] Failed to parse request JSON: SvelteKitError: Content-length of 578517 exceeds limit of 524288 bytes.

In my docker logs.

I'm running on adapter-node and already tried out adding BODY_SIZE_LIMIT=10M And also BODY_SIZE_LIMIT=Infinity to my .env file, still the same limit.

I cannot find anything else about this issue in the web and would be thankful if somebody can help out!

I fixed it myself. The problem was that I had to set the environment variable in the Dockerfile instead of inside the .env file:

ENV BODY_SIZE_LIMIT=10M

Hope it helps if somebody is having the same struggle.

I'm experiencing the same issue on Render hosting.
Here is the latest log error message :

SvelteKitError: Content-length of 1956850 exceeds limit of 524288 bytes.

I'm thinking of compressing the image directly into the browser using Squoosh, once compressed send a lightweight image to the backend to continue the process.
