Getting 413 from upload endpoint

[wesmc10]

I'm using the upload_endpoint plugin in a Rails app, and have this line Shrine.plugin :upload_endpoint, max_size: 30 * 1024 * 1024 in my initializer and this mount Shrine.upload_endpoint(:cache) => '/uploads' in my routes. I'm also using Uppy on the frontend and have this .use(XHR, { endpoint: '/uploads' }); in the JS file.

This all works as expected in development, but I've noticed that when trying to upload larger files (roughly 5 MB and above) in a staging or production environment, it fails to upload the file to /uploads and returns a 413 (Request Entity Too Large) error. Any ideas why this may be?

Is it possible that there is a request body limit set at the application server level (e.g. nginx)? Shrine should really only return this for files larger than 30 MB in your case.
