#40605 [NEW]: Unable to gracefully handle when max_post_size exceeded with file uploads

From: sam dot bryan at montal dot com Operating system: All PHP version: 5.2.1 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Unable to gracefully handle when max_post_size exceeded with file uploads Description: ------------ There is, as far as I can discern, no mechanism for detecting exceeded max_post_size when dealing with file uploads. Setting max_post_size >= upload_max_filesize is a good safety for single files, but when uploading multiple files is of no use, as individual files can be within upload_max_filesize but can cumulatively exceed max_post_size. The php://input wrapper and $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA aren't populated when data is posted with enctype multipart/form-data, otherwise that'd be a simple way of checking the POST data size. My request is for a method of detecting when max_post_size is exceeded, so it can be handled gracefully within a script. Having php://input filled when data is of multipart/form-data would do nicely. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40605&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40605&r=mysqlcfg
