Error: request entity too large for body-parser (previously said to be resolved)

[daniel-elsner]

So I see a fix for this issue back here:

#1335

Here is the original issue:

#1169

But I'm still running into this problem. ExpressEngine.js is still overriding anything in these config files.

Any further suggestions for fixing this issue? The original issue has a comment from another user back in March saying he's still running into this problem.

Try increasing the limits on the config -- their doesn't seem to be any body-parser ref in https://github.com/linnovate/meanio/blob/master/lib/core_modules/server/ExpressEngine.js

[daniel-elsner]

Yeah I tried bumping several times, even as high as 50mb and I'm still getting the issue.

[timelf123]

Can you post a stacktrace?

[daniel-elsner]

Yeah no problem

have you seen this yet http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29939852/mean-io-error-request-entity-too-large-how-to-increase-bodyparser-limit-ou

[daniel-elsner]

Yes I've been running through all kinds of suggestions on SO, particularly the ones on this post, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19917401/node-js-express-request-entity-too-large?rq=1

I tried setting bodyParser settings in the individual package app.js files as well but no luck.

The frustrating thing is that this is only an issue when the app is deployed on Heroku, locally has always worked just fine without requiring any attempts to increase the size limit. Sorry if I should have mentioned that earlier.

[timelf123]

How big is the request you are sending?

[daniel-elsner]

Chrome dev tools pegs the request at only 16 kb's which I can't imagine would be enough to trigger this issue. I'll keep investigating but I'm probably clocking out for the night. I appreciate your help thus far.

[sploiselle]

@daniel-elsner Did you ever resolve this issue? I'm seeing something similar with a very small request generating a 413 response

[tbiinfotech]

@sploiselle try using parameterLimit: 500000 for urlencoded

[khan990]

Setting file size limit solved my problem.
multer({ storage: storage, limits: {fileSize: 100000000} });

[kkajdd]

Hi,
I still have the issue in express, even though i use
app.use(bodyParser.json({limit: '15360mb', type: 'application/json'}))
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({limit: '15360mb', extended: true, type: 'application/json', parameterLimit: 5000000}))
Any other solutions for this issue please?

I am getting the same issue I have tried each suggestion and also try to follow this stack overflow answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/19965089/9345253 and I also print parser limit in node js file but each time limit automatically resets
I am getting this answer of limit in the console log
