🐛 Bug Report: File upload fails if file is greater than 5 MB i.e., needs multiple chunks

[puntiz]

👟 Reproduction steps

I upload file smaller than 5 MB is its works no problem as soon as I try uploading file larger than that I run into below errors captured from network console and docker logs

This was different on Appwrite 1.6.0 with SDK 13.0.0 .. below the previous issue about this that was closed

#225

The storage bucket has allows all users to be able to upload files, max file size is 300 mb, compression enabled with Gzip, encryption enabled and file security disabled

👍 Expected behavior

SDK should manage chunking and should upload the file

👎 Actual Behavior

🎲 Appwrite version

Version 2.0.x

💻 Operating system

Linux

🧱 Your Environment

Appwrite self hosted 1.6.1
SDK 14.0.0

Same issue when tested with SDK 13.0.0

@puntiz Please provide the full context of your code so we can appropriately recreate this.

I tested this on a brand new gitpod instance running 1.6.1 and was able to upload files up to 300mb just fine using web w/ the following:

final file = await _storage.createFile(
        bucketId: _appConfig.bucketId,
        fileId: fileId,
        file: InputFile.fromBytes(
          bytes: bytes,
          filename: fileName,
        )

@EVDOG4LIFE Not sure what additional context I can provide. Just updated to Flutter SDK 15.0.2 and now I get an ID already exists error.

The complete code snippet, which to me looks same as yours.

Error

What is looks like on Appwrite console.

Hey @EVDOG4LIFE, were you able to reproduce this ?

@puntiz hi there, we were not able to reproduce this issue on self-hosted as well. can you please try updating your version and see if that helps? https://appwrite.io/docs/advanced/self-hosting/update

[puntiz]

Waiting for upgrade path to 1.7.x to stabilise. Will upgrade and come back.

[ChiragAgg5k]

@puntiz 1.7.4 should be pretty stable now. try giving it a shot now?

[puntiz]

@ChiragAgg5k upgraded today. Will test and come back in a day..

@ChiragAgg5k sorry it took some time for me to get to this. Unfortunately it still get a totalChunk error. Screenshot of the docker logs from appwrite container below. The file I tried to upload was a mere 6 MB. So as mentioned before, any file that requires chunking doesnt work.

@ChiragAgg5k Just came across a post on Discord and it explains the issue. Apparently chunked uploads require read permission on the bucket. Can you please confirm..

[puntiz]

Well I can confirm the issue is chunked uploads also require read writes in the bucket. I currently only have create rights on the bucket. I guess we can close the issue since it's more an Appwrite issue and not an SDK issue.
