Issue Summary
When we try to attach a file that exceeds the attachment maximum size limit in the Confluence site in the Attachments macro, nothing happens but the spinning wheel keeps loading forever.
Steps to Reproduce
- Navigate to Settings > General Configuration;
- Edit it and set the attachments maximum size to 100MB, for example;
- Create a new page;
- Insert the Attachments macro, then publish the page;
- Drag&drop or search for a file in your computer that is higher than 100BM to try to upload in the page.
Expected Results
A warning message is thrown saying the file exceeds the maximum size set in that Confluence instance.
Actual Results
Nothing happens - the spinning wheel keeps spinning forever.
Notes:
- You can use this command (on OSX or Linux) to generate a 300MB file: dd if=/dev/zero of=file.txt count=1024 bs=300000
Workaround
You can either reduce the size of the file or engage one of your Confluence admins to increase the maximum size limit.
