Hi Kevin, list,

Sorry for the late answer. I was on holidays...

Your solution works. It prevents to upload files to RT but only if DropLongAttachments is defined. The only complain that I have about it is that it discard the file silently. The user sees that the upload of file has been recorded thus s/he thinks that the file is there. Only if s/he clicks the link of the file s/he can read "Large attachment dropped". It is not a big issue, but I would rather warm before and I probably wouldn't record this failed upload.

Thanking you for your help,
Carlos

Hi,

I'm being responsible to deploy RT on our institution. My boss
doesn't want to allow the upload of attached files to tickets, so
I'm disabling it. I thought that it would be possible though
etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm. I have set MaxAttachmentSize to 0, but even
with a 0 value the system let me upload files which I can later
retrieve (hence they are on the database).

What happens if you set this to 1 instead of 0 and also set
DropLongAttachments?

I now that I can copy every share/html file where there is an
"upload field" to local/html and edit them to remove the code that
shows this field, but that means at least editing 3 pages
(Ticket/Create.html, Ticket/Update.html and Ticket/ModifyAll.html).
Before I continue, I ask myself, and want to ask you, if there is an
easier/better way to disable the upload of files.
