Requested file is either too large or the format is unsupported

Tried both fixes that I could find.

https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Server-Discussions/File-Browse-Tool-File-Upload-Error/td-p/81968/page/2

Where I changed the browse tool to look for standard database types

and

https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Server-Discussions/The-Action-tool-reports-error-that-quot-file-is-not-a-known/td-p/61934

where I changed the action tool to update the value versus the import tool path

Still getting the error on the server, works just fine on my laptop. Alteryx 2019.4, 90mb xlsx file, 700k records, so I'm under the limits for everything.

I also noticed that I'm getting this same bug where the file selection doesn't actually do anything online.

I get this same error and have followed the possible solutions as well but they did not help. My file is tiny less than 500kb. No idea how to get around this.

@icoleman, did you figure out a solution to this?
