Rails + Nginx + Unicorn increase post data size ( 414 Request-URI Too Large)

Question

I get 414 (Request-URI Too Large) exception on my POST Request while sending bulk date to my server. Is it possible to increase the limit of POST data?

I have done following change in nginx configuration

large_client_header_buffers 8 2024k;

But it doesn't work.

Make sure this error happens on Nginx level not backend. – Anatoly Mar 31 '15 at 20:14 — Anatoly, Mar 31 '15 at 20:14
I don't see any log in server. No calls were made to server – Sivakumar Apr 01 '15 at 05:02 — Sivakumar, Apr 01 '15 at 05:02

It seems unicorn has built-in global default for request length. If some of part exceeds these limits, then unicorn will return HTTP 414.
