Setting upload_max_filesize = 10MB does nothing. The filesize reported by the system is always 2M. I have also tried using an .htaccess file in the upload directory to no avail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-06-13 18:44:22] noone at nowhere dot com I had similar problems, I'm using MAMP. I changed the right config file but nothing was getting changed when I ran php. Turned out I had a rogue copy of a php.ini file in my root (/Volumes/Leopard) on a mac. when the server ran it found this copy and used IT as the config file (I guess over riding the specified config file). As soon as I found (!) and deleted that root copy, the correct one was then being seen... problem solved. Do a system wide search on php.ini and make sure there aren't any stray copies kicking around. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-10 22:25:46] ilyas at foxplan dot com I had the same problem inn IIS 5.0. I noticed that IIS was picking php.ini from c:\program files\php folder instead of c:\php where I expected it to be. When I changed php.ini in c:\program files\php folder, I had the desitred result. just check your PC incase there is another installation of php. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-12-26 00:33:22] marek dot zolkowski at gmail dot com I found an error in my php.ini file... there were 1 not necessary " in file.
