Thanks for your response, Joel. I changed the parameter of the file-storage instance under sitemap, unmounted/mounted the instance, even rebooted. Still, no success!

Specifically, I get following error message while uploading a 2.5MB zip file to one of the course public folders.

We had a problem processing your entry:

* Your file is larger than the maximum file size allowed on this system (2,000,000 bytes)

Please back up using your browser, correct it, and resubmit your entry.

Am I missing something obvious?

Problem solved! Joel was right. Solution was indeed under the admin sitemap, but deep under the instance hierarchy. Earlier I had just scratched the surface at the file-storage instance at the top level of the dotlrn. The full traversal of the department/subject/class hierarchy revealed specific file-storage instances for each of the classes with configurable MaximumFileSize parameter.

Thanks again, Joel!
