Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 19:19): Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 19:19):If uploading a zip file using dvwebloader with direct upload configured on the store (or any method with direct upload) .. does the limit of 1000 per zip file still exist? I don't think so because of chunking, and I created a zip file with 1500 files and it uploaded them all, but just checking because I never remember :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 09 2024 at 20:02):I'm pretty sure that limit doesn't apply because direct upload doesn't unzip files: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.3/developers/big-data-support.html#features-that-are-disabled-if-s3-direct-upload-is-enabled
Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 20:53):thanks .. i found that page too but it didn't specifically say "there is no limit on number of files" so .. well .. you know me! gotta ask! :sweat_smile:
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 09 2024 at 20:56):What do you have https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.3/installation/config.html#zipuploadfileslimit set to?
Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 21:32):we don't have it set
Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 21:33):we do have :ZipDownloadLimit set though
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 09 2024 at 21:55):Ok, like those docs said, it defaults to 1000. So yeah, I think you've proven it. :grinning:
Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 22:09):well, i was trying to prove that there isn't a limit when using direct upload .. my zip file with 1500 files in it uploaded okay
Deirdre Kirmis (Sep 09 2024 at 22:13):we have a user who is about to upload zip files with like 4500 files in them and just wanted to verify before hand that he wasn't going to run into issues with a file # limit .. i didn't see a specific indication that there wasn't one, but was assumed (as you said) that it "chunks" since it doesn't unzip
