Unable to upload files on fresh install of DotCms via Docker

[ugur ata]

We installed DotCms via docker method (docker-compose file provided by DotCms)

Version is 22.09 (9/13/2022)

We can upload a Codec: H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1) file but most other formats do not work. We tried h265, VP8, VP9, AV1, webm etc

and as a result we have the below error:

07:40:49.754  WARN  web.ContentletWebAPIImpl - Contentlet with id:`Unknown/New` and title:`sample1` has invalid / missing field(s).
List of non valid fields
REQUIRED: fileAsset/File Asset

I couldn't find a list of supported media formats but I checked that the docker image is built on Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS and usually in Ubuntu you can install codecs via

$ sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras

Not sure whether I can install this package inside the docker container or may be there is a docker image with this package included.

Can you please help ?

Thanks in advance

What are you trying to do exactly?  Upload videos or codecs?   I just uploaded a h265 encoded video to demo and it is coming back with the correct mime type - content-type: video/mp4.  You can play it here:

Hi

The video file was encoded with "Codec: H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1) " That is what VLC says. When we upload such a file it is parsed and identified as a video file and we can save it but H265, VP8, VP9, AV1 these are not identified. I would like to know how you can upload a H265 encoded file for example because that doesn't work on our setup.

Hi

We figured out that it was a limitation of Nginx in front. After increasing http body size it worked.

Thanks pointing out the demo web site it helped
