HTTP Limits | Fix 413: Request Entity Too Large

Increase HTTP upload & form size limits. Fix the “413: Request Entity Too Large” error instantly. Configurable from Settings — no code changes needed.

▪ COMMUNITY ▪ ENTERPRISE
COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH EDITIONS

The Problem

413: Request Entity Too Large

Odoo limits HTTP request sizes by default (128 MB content, 10 MB form data). When users try to upload large files, import big CSV/Excel datasets, or submit forms with heavy content, they hit the dreaded 413 error and their work is lost.

This module eliminates that error by raising the limits to 512 MB (configurable) — just install and it works.

413: Request Entity Too Large

The default error users see

Features

1 Install & Done

Just install the module and the 413 error is gone. Default limits are raised to 512 MB automatically. No configuration needed, no server restart required after changing settings.

Install → Problem Solved

Settings → HTTP Limits

2 Configurable from Settings

Navigate to Settings → HTTP Limits to adjust the maximum upload size and form data limit. Set any value in megabytes — changes apply instantly without server restart.

3 Large File Uploads

Upload large images, PDFs, videos, CAD files, backups — any file type, any size up to your configured limit. No more failed uploads or lost work.

All File Types Supported

Import Large CSV/Excel Files

4 Big Data Imports

Import large CSV and Excel files with thousands of rows without hitting size limits. Perfect for bulk product imports, contact lists, and data migrations.

5 Survives Restarts

Your custom limits are stored in the database and automatically restored after every server restart. Set it once, forget about it forever.

Persistent Across Restarts

Lightweight & Dependency-Free

6 Zero External Dependencies

No extra Python packages, no pip install, no system libraries. Works with standard Odoo out of the box. Lightweight and safe.

Technical Details

What It Patches

Overrides max_content_length and max_form_memory_size on Werkzeug request objects used by Odoo’s HTTP layer.

Default: 512 MB

Both limits default to 512 MB (up from Odoo’s 128 MB / 10 MB defaults). Adjustable via Settings to any value you need.

Safe & Reversible

Uninstall the module and Odoo’s original limits are fully restored. No permanent changes to core files or configurations.

Instant Apply

Changes from Settings take effect immediately without requiring a server restart. Limits are applied in real-time.

Multi-Company

Settings are global (system parameters). The limits apply to the entire Odoo instance, regardless of company context.
