How can i resolve this

Your error message is mangled, but the relevant bit survived - error code 413.

"Content too large" suggests either:

  1. Some middleware between your Linux server and wherever you're trying to save the project is rejecting the request
  2. Your project is genuinely too large for our default webserver settings, suggesting you're doing something catastrophically wrong like saving a massive binary file into your project. I've literally never heard of someone getting a 413 from Ignition specific code.
