Boa Webserver - Increasing the upload filesize


I am attempting to upload a 60MB file using the Boa webserver. It seems that there is about a 32MB limit for the filesize that Boa can upload. Is there a way to increase this (configuration option, modifying the code, etc.)?

Thank you.

Welcome to LinuxQuestions.

I am not familiar with Boa but from reading the documentation it appears to be using CGI scripts. It could be your CGI script or something related to the server itself.

However, Boa was discontinued in 2005 and has many vulnerabilities. You should not be using the server. If you can switch to another server Lighttpd could be a good choice.

Correct, it's old and prone to constant attacks.
Recommendation would be to replace with something supported
See one example at https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/...ver/http.httpd
