Unable to upload proguard file to Sentry (Error 413 File Too Large)

[ravishaccedo]

AGP Version

Code Minifier/Optimizer

R8

Version

4.5.1

Sentry SDK Version

7.9.0

Steps to Reproduce

When building a release version of the app, the build fails at task :uploadSentryProguardMappings.
When running the build again with debug option we are seeing that the sentry-cli fails with error 413 "File too large"

We tried uploading the same mapping file separately as well using the standalone sentry-cli and we are getting the same error.

The size of the uncompressed mapping file is 188 MB and when compressed it comes down to 11 MB (approx)

Below is the output of the sentry-cli

`sentry-cli upload-proguard app/build/outputs/mapping/devRelease/mapping.txt --project sbt-android --log-level debug

We should be able to successfully upload the proguard file.

hi @ravishaccedo

sentry.maissbt.com/api/0/projects/maissbt/sbt-android/files/dsyms

this looks like you're using a self-hosted version of Sentry. In this case I'd recommend checking with your infra team if you got enough storage for proguard mappings. I know of some customers that are uploading 500MB+ files just fine on sentry.io, so it must be something with your self-hosted version I believe.

[markushi]

The relay docs also mention a file upload size limit, maybe that's the one you're hitting?

[ravishaccedo]

Thanks @romtsn
I hav reached out to the admin of the self hosted sentry and i am waiting for a response.

Could be a limit issue rather than a space issue?

Basically for self hosted sentry is it possible to define limits for proguard files. If yes, which configuration do we need to update?

[romtsn]

Yeah, I think you can try to tweak the following config - limits.max_api_chunk_upload_size and limits.max_api_file_upload_size. They are a part of the Relay config, you can see the limits in the docs that @markushi linked above.

[ravishaccedo]

Thanks @romtsn and @markushi
I have raised the issue with the owner of the self hosted sentry. Not sure if there was a need for them to decrease the default limits. If default limits have been in place the file of 11 MB should have uploaded successfully.

I will close this issue and open another if we still face challenges with the file upload.
