He there,

I have a problem with the backup file uploading to the new site. It hangs at 2%. Uploading file directly to /var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups just doesn’t help. It’s not showed in UI.

Thanks!

Yay. It’s just my fault.

I have a frontend nginx configured.

```
client_max_body_size 100m;

```

solved the problem.

Please close the topic.
