Error during attachment uploading

[Sergey Bunatyan]

Hello.

I'm using XML-RPC to upload attachments into Confluence. The API version is 1 and the Confluence version is 3.5.13.

So, in case of uploading file with size ~30Mb (or greater) I get the error mesage "<ProtocolError for mysite.com/rpc/xmlrpc: 500 Internal Server Error>".

Files with size less than ~30Mb updload succesfully. If I upload big (>30Mb) files using web interface - there is no problem too.

The Attachment Maximum Size parameter is set to 191,20 MB.

I,m using Python 2.7 and the API method server.confluence1.addAttachment (like here https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DISC/Upload+attachment+via+Python+XML-RPC)

So, why do I get this error and how can I solve my problem?

Just a guess, you may need to increase the timeout at the client side.

Or use the CLI with addAttachment option and do an experiment whether it works.

You're right, that was my problem. Thank you.
