limit UPLOAD files to 1KB from APACHE, NOT from scripts

[000]

hello,

why when we config the file /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf in cPanel with the options

<Directory "/home">
    LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB
<Directory>

or directlly with the string:

    LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB

users can UPLOAD files with more of 1KB ?

we wait the result from OTHERS servers with Apache:



we need config this directlly from Apache,
not from SCRIPT.

thanks

of course:

we not only restart Apache,
we restart the complet server !!

Apache say:

core - Servidor HTTP Apache Versión 2.4

httpd.apache.org

but this not work in cPanel


what we can do?

 

[000]

finally we do this ( 1 = 1MB ):



and neither work, we can upload files of 3MB, 5MB, etc....

but we need 1KB

thanks,

as we say in our first message:

we config the file /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf in cPanel with the options

<Directory "/home">
LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB
<Directory>

or directlly with the string:

   LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB

we put this two options directly on the file /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

note:
we put ONE or OTHER and restart Apache, however nothing change:

users can UPLOAD files of 1MB, 10MB, 100MB, etc...

 

[cPRex]

Alright, and how are you testing the upload limit after Apache is restarted?

thanks by your time master @cPRex

Thanks, I just wanted to confirm.

Do you have an example of the code you're using so I could try to replicate this on my end?

of course,
here is the code:

you can choice, option #1:

<Directory "/home">
    LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB
<Directory>

or option #2:

 LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB

paste this DIRECTLY on the file

/etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

that is the info FROM

core - Servidor HTTP Apache Versión 2.4

httpd.apache.org

I'm sorry - I meant the code of the HTML form, not the Apache configuration option.

<form
 action="https://website.com/process/" method="post"
 enctype="multipart/form-data"
>
<input type="file" name="data" value="file" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>

logically use upload_max_filesize is 100% obtuse, (any user/form can change, remove this field)

have you tried in WHM Home >software >Multiphpini Editor
change the upload file size in php editor ?

then users can't change file upload limit..

even if they change in Cpanel for 100mb will not work, because it will have default you set im whm

just an idea if you have not tried it?

How to set File Upload Size limit in Apache?  Print

As we know Apache is an open-source and free web server. Here, we will configure apache to set limit over file upload and download from your web server. 
It is always necessary to configure your webserver against the incoming client request. Nowadays, webserver does affect the DDOS attack. 
This should also be useful to prevent your webserver from those attacks as well.

We can set a total size of HTTP requests using the LimitRequestBody directive. This can be defined in your websites .htaccess or in http.conf file. 
We can set the required value in between the range of decided by the request body. It is from 0 (unlimited) to 2 GB.

Suppose you have a Wordpress website and you want to set a limit on the wp-upload folder to only allow uploads up to 200 KB. 
In this case, you will need to add the below line inside your .htaccess or httpd.conf file.

<Directory "/var/www/myapplication/wp-uploads">
    LimitRequestBody 200000
<Directory>
Once you make the above changes in your file don't forget to save it.

After this, please restart and reload your HTTP service.

# service httpd restart

# service httpd reload

yes!,

please see our reply #3, we quote:





but in cPanel this fail

then how we config to 1KB, or how we use LimitRequestBody to 1KB into a server cPanel ?

 

[Spirogg]

<Directory "/home"> LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB <Directory>

is Directory /home the full path?

 

[000]

is Directory /home the full path?

sure, is for ALL users!

 

[Spirogg]

sure, is for ALL users!

have you tried to add another /

so <Directory "/home/"> LimitRequestBody 1024 # file MAX 1KB <Directory>

 

[Spirogg]

not sure but maybe you can add your limit here



not sure if you looked here and if it might work here?
