Does anybody know if there is a limit to the size of a file that we can upload? I have a file that is 120 Megs. Am I just wasting my time trying?

Hello,

The default file size upload limit is 2GB. But, it can vary in shared servers.

If you own an account with us, please send a request to support team, so that they will check the server and shall update you with the correct details.

FTP file size limitFtp File Size Limit
There are limits depending on the client you are using, AND mostly the filesystem used on the storage behind the FTP server.
Most FTP clients will choke at 1GB+, the better ones will choke at 4GB+. I have not yet confirmed one that successfully sends above 4GBytes ... I got to try it ... If anyone has, please share your results.
For filesystem limitations, on Windows machines, limitation on the system depends on the FileSystem used:
- FAT16 = 2GB limit;
- FAT32 = 4GB minus 2 bytes max limit.
- NTFS = 2TB (that's terrabytes)
