Having got the upload process itself down, I've been trying with different file-sizes. However, when I've uploaded larger files (2500px) to the Beta cluster, the image re-sizes to the smaller, 500px version whenever I try to view or download the image at full resolution, despite all indications being that the current version should be the larger format. I'm not sure whether this is an issue with the Beta cluster or with the Toolset, or if it only has to do with uploading subsequent versions of files. Has anyone run into this kind of problem before?

I don't expect this to be an issue when uploading to Commons proper in most cases, but I find it strange nonetheless.

Hi Ally,
Having got the upload process itself down, I’ve been trying with different
file-sizes. However, when I’ve uploaded larger files (2500px) to the Beta cluster, the image re-sizes to the smaller, 500px version whenever I try to view or download the image at full resolution, despite all indications being that the current version should be the larger format. I’m not sure whether this is an issue with the Beta cluster or with the Toolset, or if it only has to do with uploading subsequent versions of files. Has anyone run into this kind of problem before?

Strange indeed, does not ring a bell.
I have reported the problem on Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65683

Bah, you beat me by 2 minutes :)
There have been some changes to thumbnailing recently. I just reported a bug for this: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65684

This looks like a possible bug worth reporting if you can duplicate this error. I have not seen this on my beta tests. I am uploading in the production environment right now, see [1] for an example just minutes ago, with no problems in viewing very large files.
I'm wondering if something has been rolled out in beta that is affecting thumbnail creation.
Looking at your example, I can view a much larger thumbnail by going via the media viewer, see [2], but this does not seem to match the maximum dimensions available on the image page. So, yes, weirdness.

Hi Ally,
I investigated the bug. It appears to be an issue with how beta cluster is set up. It won't affect files on commons.
