Inquiry About Discourse’s Support for Amazon S3 Storage

I have already asked my friend to switch from the S+ storage with proxy caching method to the S3 storage + CloudFront CDN delivery method. However, it seems to have failed, and I don’t know the reason yet.

They should probably be participating in this topic, then. Did they follow Configure an S3 compatible object storage provider for uploads and put the setttings in the ymll file and add the part that pushes assets to S3?

“Sorry, that file is too big (maximum size is 50 MB). Why not upload your large file to a cloud sharing service, then paste the link?”

@wenqin

When I try to upload a video to my forum, it now directly shows the message:

“Sorry, that file is too big (maximum size is 50 MB). Why not upload your large file to a cloud sharing service, then paste the link?”

However, my video itself is only 10 MB. Currently, I’m using S3 storage with CloudFront CDN for delivery.

Maybe the browser somehow isn’t communicating the size appropriately.

@pfaffman

it might be better to enable Enable direct S3 uploads .

Did you try this?
