Dear Django community, Hi have problems understanding the difference between FILE_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE vs. DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE.
Previously, I used django 1.11 and I had two different values, as we wanted to allow bigger file uploads than normal requests. So we had a higher limit for FILE_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE. However, after moving to django 2.x, I needed to increase the DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE value to allow big file uploads, and I don't understand why, as it is explicitely stated in the documentation that uploaded files are not considered for FILE_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE. The check is done when accessing request.body or request.POST and is > calculated against the total request size excluding any file upload data. > I'm using django 2.2.2 together with djangorestframework 3.9.4. So the questions are: - should they work as stated in the documentation? - why don't they work like that for my setup? So happy for any hint!
