If you prefer a different location, you can change it by setting the <code>TRILIUM_DATA_DIR</code> environment
variable:</p><pre><code class="language-text-x-trilium-auto">export TRILIUM_DATA_DIR=/home/myuser/data/my-trilium-data</code></pre>
<h3>Disabling / Modifying the Upload Limit</h3>
<p>If you're running into the 250MB limit imposed on the server by default,
and you'd like to increase the upload limit, you can set the <code>TRILIUM_NO_UPLOAD_LIMIT</code> environment
variable to <code>true</code> disable it completely:</p><pre><code class="language-text-x-trilium-auto">export TRILIUM_NO_UPLOAD_LIMIT=true </code></pre>
<p>Or, if you'd simply like to <em>increase</em> the upload limit size to something
beyond 250MB, you can set the <code>MAX_ALLOWED_FILE_SIZE_MB</code> environment
variable to something larger than the integer <code>250</code> (e.g. <code>450</code> in
the following example):</p><pre><code class="language-text-x-trilium-auto">export MAX_ALLOWED_FILE_SIZE_MB=450</code></pre>
<h3>Disabling Authentication</h3>
<p>If you are running Trilium on localhost only or if authentication is handled
by another component, you can disable Triliums authentication by adding
the following to <code>config.ini</code>:</p><pre><code class="language-text-x-trilium-auto">[General]
noAuthentication=true</code></pre>

### Disabling / Modifying the Upload Limit
If you're running into the 250MB limit imposed on the server by default, and you'd like to increase the upload limit, you can set the `TRILIUM_NO_UPLOAD_LIMIT` environment variable to `true` disable it completely:
```
export TRILIUM_NO_UPLOAD_LIMIT=true
```
Or, if you'd simply like to _increase_ the upload limit size to something beyond 250MB, you can set the `MAX_ALLOWED_FILE_SIZE_MB` environment variable to something larger than the integer `250` (e.g. `450` in the following example):
```
export MAX_ALLOWED_FILE_SIZE_MB=450
