The setting needs to be within the "Location" block in your Nginx file that
proxies to Guacamole. You should have Location block that looks something
like this:
location /guacamole/ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/guacamole/;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
access_log off;
}
You would need to add the client_max_body_size directive to that
configuration block:
location /guacamole/ {
proxy_pass http://HOSTNAME:8080/guacamole/;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
access_log off;
client_max_body_size 1g;
}
And then restart Nginx. I have this implemented in my environment and
it works fine.
