If you change an Apache config, and do not see the expected results, it's either the wrong config file, wrong context, possibly wrong syntax (even though a syntax check is OK and Apache starts without error messages and runs normally except for the behavior you're trying to modify), or possibly something outside of Apache.

First of all, is that the correct context? According to the manual (
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#limitrequestbody ), this
directive can appear in the main server config or in virtual server (
) sections. It may be that you have put the directive in
the main server config, yet you're trying to control the VirtualHost and
it's not being seen or inherited. I do not know if this directive in a
server context will automatically be inherited by a virtual server. It
may be. Perhaps someone else can shed light upon that behavior.

Second of all, there may be other mechanisms which are limiting file
upload size besides Apache. Are you using a specific script to upload
the file? The scripting engine (such as PHP) can configure and impose
its own file upload limitations, for instance, and an upload script may
be written in such a way as to produce an error response with headers as
you've shown. So can Perl's CGI.pm module.

If you change an Apache config, and do not see the expected results,
it's either the wrong config file, wrong context, possibly wrong syntax
(even though a syntax check is OK and Apache starts without error
messages and runs normally except for the behavior you're trying to
modify), or possibly something outside of Apache. If it is within
Apache, check your error logs to see and verify at what point the
failure occurs if it's caused by Apache.
