See patch. FileBackend.php has a hard-coded limit ($this->maxFileSize) of ~1 GB. If LocalSettings.php $wgMaxUploadSize is set > 1 GB, the file will be blocked by FileBackend.php. The patch adds a condition to defer to $GLOBALS['wgMaxUploadSize'] if it is greater than maxFileSize.

$wgMaxUploadSize is not necessarily an integer, but could also be an array of integers.
Created attachment 10899 [details] FileBackend.php patch v2 See updated patch. Should cover more bases.
Comment on attachment 10897 [details] FileBackend.php patch I presume this is obsoleted by the "v2" patch. :)

Please put your amendment in Gerrit instead of here.
Hello? Can you request developer access and submit this to Gerrit please?
On the 23rd of September, Aaron Schulz posted this comment on the Gerrit change: >The limit is 4GiB now, and if it were to be configured, we'd want to use a paramer given to the FileBackend constructor.
