set max file size for upload - el_finder for rails

Question

I can't find where to set the maximum upload file size. There's a variable or some initializer I ignored? Could you help me? Nunzio

Answer 1

Rails itself doesn't has a limit or rather a way to set one.

elFinder has a variable called uploadMaxSize. Look up the Connector configuration options of elFinder for further information here.

For PaperClip use the validator called validates_attachment_size. Example Usage can be found here under Validations.
