Unable to upload a file larger than 1mb with no errors in log

[Craig Nelson]

Hi everyone, I am using alfresco community 4.2.0 and am unable to upload files larger than 1 mb in alfresco explorer or alfresco share. I am not seeing anythign in the logs. I am running alfresco on linux and am not using a proxy server of any kind. I am using straight connection to the box. I have tried to look to see if there is a problem in the repository.properties with quotas or file limits but this has been disabled. I looked at the share-custom.config and it looked fine. I tried to change some properties in the server.xml to increase the time out and set the MaxPostSize to 0. I have searched the forms but I am not sure what is going on. 

Here is a copy of my server.xml

Any ideas?

I don't understand the behavior you are seeing.

Is it ending with an error in the UI?

Is it ending "successfully" but there is no file in the repository?

Is it creating an empty or corrupted file?

Sorry I should of posted the solution. My friend had a proxy server that I was not aware of causing the issue. The proxy server was not allowing for over 1MB to the server. We changed the settings and it resolved it.

Thanks
