Having some problems with file uploading and adding a custom domain to my account

[Paraliyzed_evo]

Let’s address the easier problem first, when I try to upload a 33mb wav file to the file manager, it just doesn’t upload even when I did it three times. I thought this was a glitch and reloaded the website to see the audio embed doesnt play as the file wasn’t uploaded. Idk if it’s a problem on my end (which it shouldn’t because Im using ethernet) or it’s a problem on the file manager. I will try again tomorrow. Second thing is adding a custom domain from Cloudflare. Since I couldn’t edit the name servers from my domian since it’s not free and you have to pay for a business account, I tried to add the cname records with the added two a records you’re supposed to do. Just to note, I also use the same domain for hosting my minecraft server so I have additional records on there too but I don’t think it should effect it.

If you’re wondering why I have so many ports for a minecraft server, it’s just because of multiplayer plugins that require open ports to work (vcs, proximity chat, etc). Well hope you guys can help me with my two problems. (Oh one more thing, everything in my .htaccess file to block ips except certain ips doesn’t work except the error 404 document and the error 303 document).

In short, this is not an issue, it is intended behaviour.

What is the file/upload size limit

On all InfinityFree servers is a file size limit of 10 MB. It’s important to note that this is a file size limit and not an upload limit. The difference is subtle, but important. An upload limit could be set through PHP settings, but this limit is enforced on the file system level. No PHP configuration can override this limit and it applies to files uploaded through FTP or the file manager as well. Can the limit be increased? No. The size limit is fixed and cannot be increased in any way. 10 M…

If you need big videos, upload them to YouTube, then embed the YouTube video into your website.

Can you please try disabling the proxy on the CNAME? Moreover, are you sure you are adding the domain to an existing account?

[Paraliyzed_evo]

Disabling the proxy works, should’ve tried that earlier but the docs didn’t say anything about a proxy but appreciate your help!

Oh also can you explain to me on why this doesnt work and how to fix it?

As a rule of thumb, when using Cloudflare, please understand that if you enable the Cloudflare proxy, then Cloudflare essentially removes the original DNS records and points it to their own servers instead.

For any DNS records intended for websites, that’s fine. For any other records, like mail servers, game servers and - very important - any kind of domain verification record, Cloudflare must NOT be enabled, because if you do, then Cloudflare will not publish the record you created.

Please note that IP blocking on your website along with Cloudflare is tricky because Cloudflare sits in between. If you want to block certain people from accessing your website, you should block them through Cloudflare instead.

But I’m not quite sure what exactly you have setup, what it’s supposed to do and what it actually does.
