It comes from the PHP settings. Specifically,

upload\_max\_filesize=12G  
post\_max\_size=12G

Either from `php.ini` or from PHP itself. 32-bit PHP supports only 2 GB.

What’s the reason? 32-bit PHP? (The answer can help other users to fix the problem. ;-))

32-bit PHP on a 64-bit OS is often found in shared hosting environments. If this is the problem, one should ask the hosting provider for an upgrade of PHP.

Yepp, the 32bit PHP is the problem for the max upload of 2gb. I run my NC on a Synology NAS with DSM 6.0. There i cant change php to 64-bit ;(
