Forum: Mongrel No file uploads possible with mongrel?

Hello all!

I am using mongrel in several production environments and it is working 
great! Now I have to put up some really large files (html multipart, no 
plugin used, some hundret Mb). The only thing I can produce with mongrel 
is:

Any ideas? alternatives?

Thank you VERY much in advance!

If you're mentioning hundred of megabytes it might be possible that
the Ruby instance is not able to handle the file properly.

Would be great if you can isolate this to a real minimum mongrel
handler example instead of a Rails application.

I had successfully uploaded big files with mongrel, but honestly never
tried to upload 200mb or similar because will be suboptimal.
