I have adjusted ini for upload_max_filesize, max_execution_time and post_max_Size using ini_set for just my upload page... Problem... Will not write a file to /tmp if over a certain size... I'm trying to apply 5MB file - upload_max_filesize set to 10M, max_execution_time set to 300 and post_max_size set to 10M.. Also edited apache conf file - LimitRequestBody per a post... I can upload 1.5MB but not 2MB or more.. Is ini_set maybe not working? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-10 10:34:23] j dot henshaw at ulster dot ac dot uk with reference to "[9 Jan 8:56am CST] OK, problem solved - here's what I did" (I just found this thread ... and thanks to all that contributed, 'cos you helped me fix my box.) The reboot was not necessary. However, the php.ini file is only read when apache starts. So issue "service httpd restart" command and your changes to php.ini are read when apache restarts. No way will Linux ever behave like a windoze box! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-03 02:42:26] luimarma at iti dot upv dot es Use a newer php version, versions under 4.2 have this feature broken. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-02 19:45:56] aiphuong1001 at yahoo dot com It doesn't work for my case. What did I do wrong? I'm using PHP version 4.1.2, apache 1.3.26 on Mac OS X and trying to upload a 200M file via Internet Explorer with the setting in php.ini: max_execution_time = 30000 max_input_time = 30000 memory_limit = 2000M post_max_size = 2000M file_uploads = On ;upload_tmp_dir = upload_max_filesize = 2000M allow_url_fopen = On and in http.conf: Timeout = 30000 MaxKeepAliveRequests = 50000 The result is that the progress bar keeps showing 3/10 of the bar, the spinning wheel keeps spinning and the uploading never ends for hours. Files under 50M are uploaded successfully though. In my php code, I direct the uploaded files to a specific folder in the server. So, Is the upload_tmp_dir used at all? By the way, where is this folder? How can I check whether the upload eats sytem memory or not? This task is so important to me. Please help!!! Thanks so much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-12 02:33:12] simone at cisbic dot com Someone found a solution for old PHP like 4.0.6? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
