Are you sure the script isn't getting a timeout?
ie. try putting set_time_limit(0); in beginning of that
script.

Yes, it isn't a timeout problem, I've tried both set_time_limit(0) and the same in
php.ini; the script crash immediately when I post the file.

I know that the file is stored in memory, but I set memory_limit = 80M so it should work. Why if the
size is > 9MB (with a file size of 8MB still works fine) the script crash?

Anyway, the HTTP upload code in PHP is not very suitable
for uploading very big files since it stores everything
in memory before writing it to disk.

(There already is another bug report open about that.)

I don't manage to upload file whose size is greater than 9MB, I get a connection aborted error.

I use PHP 4.0.4pl1, Win2000, IIS5 and IE 5.0 or NS 4.77 as browser.

In the php.ini I set memory_limit = 80M, upload_max_filesize= 80M

With small size file all works fine.

This is the script

Form:
<form method="post" action="software_add.php"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
	<INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="80000000">
	<input type=file name="file_software">
  <input type="submit">
</form>

Software_add.php:
<?
copy($file_software, "$DOCUMENT_ROOT\\software\\$file_software_name");
?>
