413 Error "Entity Too Large"

by BlueTangs Rock » Post

Greetings, so I was going to upload a picture from my phone onto a post on the forums, but when I uploaded the image it brought me to an error screen that said "413 Request Entity Too Large nginx/1.12.2".

I would post a screenshot of the error screen but even that picture is too large.

It seems like the problem is that my phone's default image size is too large (around 2.20 MB average) which means that I can't upload picture files onto the forums.

If it's possible to, how would I be able to shrink the image size so I can properly upload the image files on forum posts?
Look at that, a signiture box! To bad I have nothing to put in i-... Wait...

The Minetest Forums has a file size limit of 1 MB. To compress the image, you could either crop it or convert it to a JPEG. Alternatively, you could upload your image to a different image platform like Imgur, but its best to place images directly on the forums if possible because they won't disappear over time.

I ended up using Imgur, and it seems like it's working now. Thank you for the help!

To fix the 413 Request Entity Too Large error, compress your image or convert it to JPEG by using online jpeg compressor tool. Alternatively, upload the image to Imgur if needed.
