I was trying to upload new images to my AWS Orthanc Server, but every time I put those on the upload drag-and-drop area, I receive an error saying "No File Upload". I try to fix this, but no luck. Then I inspect the DICOM Images and I found these new ones are bigger (aprox. 15Mb) than the others that already are on the server (aprox. 600Kb).

How can I fix this? Is any tool around there to reduce the DICOM Images size?

Thank you!

Hello,

There is no such limit on the file size in Orthanc.

You should review the parameters of the reverse proxy running within your AWS server that links Internet to Orthanc.

For instance, if this is Apache, start by reviewing the LimitRequestBody:

Also, carefully read the following known issue:

Thank you very much. Like you said, I just need to change the "Limit Request Body" of the ngingx thank to this thread.
