 Aurora Files
 > System > Files > Limits, Personal, Corporate = 1000MB
 
 PHP.ini
 > post_max_size = 500M; upload_max_filesize = 500M
 
 nginx conf
 > client_max_body_size 500M;
 
 
 AFAIK, I should be able to upload files that are (about) 500MB in size now. When I create some test files (470MB) I'm still getting the max file error ("Maximum allowed size is 100MB").
 
 Within the database, I see that `au_core_users` still shows "100" in Files::UserSpaceLimitMb for the user that I created when I first installed the system.
 
 However, now that these settings are saved, I create a new user, that new user has the setting correct.
 
 
 Therefore, I guess I'm posting about a bug: when you update the settings, it only applies to new users created after that setting is in place - it doesn't adjust existing users already in the database.
 
 Thoughts / comments?

          While file upload limits affect both new and existing users, file storage quotas are adjusted for existing users individually in their settings under Users tab. That's why changing user space limit doesn't affect existing users, only new ones, and there's a hint stating that: "User space limit is applied to the newly created user as the default value."

 An alternative would be to discard ANY changes you've made to users file limits individually and replacing them with the new value, I think that could be much more confusing.
