Description

Backing up the config from the webgui and selecting 'Skip packages' generates a 0B file if the config file is too large.

That can be triggered by uploading a file of ~600KB in to the captive portal file manager.

It does not fail when uploading the same file into the Filer package but that is inside the <installed packages> section.

It does not fail when removing RRD data, which is the default.
