Hi Kyle, Thaks to the hint. I did not changed the standard setting: it still 512MB. When I try to upload a 1 GB file, the submit-process starts to work but ends up on a white page (with the tomcat-favicon at the URL instead of the DSpace one). additionally I have entries in the dspace.log with a clear error message that I exceed the configured upload limit. But when I try it with a 2 GB file the situation is different: there is no reaction at the browser (with firefox and IE) or it crashes (Konquerer) and there are no entries in the dspace.log, nor in any tomcat- or system-log. As far as I understood the 2 GB limit is known to the DSpace delelopers and outside or there realm (http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/ArchReviewNotes).
Since the 2 GB limit is ok for us I will look for an alternative to the upload via HTTP.
