For future reference, I have also experienced same issue.

  • Server version: v24.8.0
  • Installation: Docker

I am guessing having non-synced local version is fine.

Quick update - I reported the same issue at Discord #support

I created new server at pikapod - App: v24.8.0 | Server: v24.8.0
And imported same 2 budget files, and syncing is working fine for both of them.

Must be something wrong with my installation.

I will go through the doc again at https://actualbudget.org/docs/install/docker and post updates on my findings. Thanks

ℹ️ Update

The issue was specific to my setup of using reverse proxy using Nginx.

By default, the default value for client_max_body_size in Nginx is 1 MB.

After I set that to client_max_body_size 50M; I was able to upload and make the budget file as cloud file. 😅 ✅

For someone how's running Actual in Kubernetes and using nginx ingress controller you can add annotation to your individual ingress resources to increase client_max_body_size:

  • Official NGINX Ingress: nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: "50m"
  • Official Kubernetes Ingress: nginx.org/client-max-body-size: "50m"

Annotation depends of which nginx controller you are running:

If you are using the official NGINX Ingress, the correct annotation is here: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-ingress-controller/configuration/ingress-resources/advanced-configuration-with-annotations/

If you are using the official Kubernetes Ingress based on NGINX, the correct annotation is this: https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/user-guide/nginx-configuration/annotations/#custom-max-body-size
