The output of occ app:list (if possible).
I checked the Parameters in Nextcloud and Nginx container
APACHE_BODY_LIMIT = 10 GB
upload_max_filesize = 10 GB
post_max_size = 10 GB
all time limits are unrestricted
update: I did a lot of more testing and checked every setting twice. I found that chunking files is not working, in teh updated container as well. 33.0.0, before was 32.0.0 (32.0.6 was not tested, but updated to)
