Summary of the issue you are facing:

I am using the Desktop Client to sync files from my MacBook to my Cloud. Most files work, even large ones, but some don’t. The Desktop Client shows this error:

On the server side, in the logs I can see this error all over the place:

BadRequestExpected filesize of 104857600 bytes but read (from Nextcloud client) and wrote (to Nextcloud storage) 54018048 bytes. Could either be a network problem on the sending side or a problem writing to the storage on the server side.
