Mapknitter issues with file uploads

[patcoyle]

I observed file upload messages that request entity is too large for jpegs and pngs of Photoshop stitched comomposite images. See screen shot.

Hi, pat - I'm surprised that the 4.8 and 3.4 mb images were "too big" -- can you try those two smaller ones alone?

Sorry, forgot to close this after the Barnraising! Resolved; SSL-related.

I'm seeing images hang in Mapknitter and not upload:

this is 2.7mb, after over half an hour of waiting for upload

i think the user Jan Cuipa is having the same issue, attempting to confirm in this thread:

I had updated to ImageMagick 6.9.2, and found this in the nginx logs:

App 21789 stderr: convert convert:
App 21789 stderr: Unrecognized option
App 21789 stderr:  (-auto-orient)
App 21789 stderr: .

So I downgraded again (now it's running ImageMagick 6.7.7.10) and this started working again.
Previously it was running GraphicsMagick 1.3.16, which is a fork.
The idea was to see if it worked better at peak traffic to manage performance vs resources.

The user has reported a different error that is consistent with phusion/passenger#1426. Our nginx.conf says keepalive_timeout 65; - but I have been unable to reproduce. Just in case, I'll double this digit, but can't test if it helps.

Hi! I tried to reproduce the issue but wasn't able to do so. Although, image is taking a bit time to upload like 4 min for 3.5 mb file but the upload was completed. @jywarren what do you think about this one? Thanks!

Although, I found some bugs like Image greater than 10 mb is also uploaded and other file formats like mp4 are allowed to be chosen and don't give error. I will open issues for them. Thanks!

@jywarren I tested all this on https://mapknitter.org/maps/lireille which seems to be a spam post so feel free to delete it.

[jywarren]

Thanks! OK, let's close this and open new ones for faster upload, restricting upload type, better error reporting and other refinements to image upload handling. Thanks!

Hey @jywarren, I opened 2 separate issues for both problems #328 #329, so closing this one. Thanks!

I opened one more issue for discussing over upload speed #330. Also, I think we can add Progress bar which will give the user fair-estimate about the upload process. Thanks!
