VirtualBox image file upload limit should be 10Mb (or 32Mb)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a simple App Engine project containing one static file of over 1Mb
2. Upload this project to TyphoonAE VirtualBox VM

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Upload should complete successfully.
Receive error message from nginx that file is too large

Please provide any additional information below.

AppEngine allows file sizes of up to 10Mb

UPDATE: SDK 1.5.5 Now allows 32Mb files

Thanks for reporting this. This very likely happens due to a misconfiguration 
in the /home/typhoonae/typhoonae/etc/appcfgnginx.conf file.

In order to fix it:

1) Use ssh to login to the guest OS:

$ ssh typhoonae@<ip_of_your_guest_os>

or, if you've properly modified /etc/hosts

$ ssh typhoonae@typhoonae.local

2) cd typhoonae/etc

3) Apply the following patch:

   server {
+      client_max_body_size 100m;
       listen      8080;
       server_name typhoonae.local typhoonae;
       access_log  /home/typhoonae/typhoonae/var/log/appcfg-httpd-access.log;

4) Restart the app cfg service:

typhoonae@typhoonae:~$ sudo supervisorctl restart appcfg_service

This allows you to upload application files up to 100m.

Please let me know if this resolves the issue.

Cheers,
Tobias

I'm so sorry. There was a little mistake in my last comment. You should rather 
restart appcfg_nginx than the appcfg_service.

@Jonathan: And there was a missing RPC in our appcfg service. Sorry again.
