Yes. The error message is referring to the web server side of things, 
i.e. Xitami/IIS/Apache/whatever.
Assuming you're using Apache, take a look at the LimitRequestBody 
directive (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#limitrequestbody). 
You'd probably want to raise the maximum size only for the PUT method, 
and only in the uploads directory, so you'd probably want to write 
something like
   <Directory /path/for/uploads>
     <Limit PUT>
       LimitRequestBody 16000000
     </Limit>
   </Directory>
either in .htaccess (in that case, you can omit the <Directory> wrapper) 
or in httpd.conf.
