nginx returns 413 on uploads even though I set client_max_body_size
Set client_max_body_size 50m; in my site's server block and reloaded. Still 413 for anything over a meg. curl -v shows it's definitely nginx answering and not the app.

Dump the config nginx is actually using and check two things:
nginx -T | grep -n -E 'server_name|client_max_body_size'
A location with its own client_max_body_size overrides the server one. And check that the request is hitting the server block you think it is. 1m is the default, so you're probably in a block with no setting.
Second one. I edited the block for example.com and was testing against www.example.com, which falls through to the default server. Feel slightly stupid. Thanks.
