Re: How to assure that php.ini is being obeyed?

Sebastian Mendel, I am using simple scripts to verify this file size issue: The Html file that accepts the job is as follows: <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploading.php" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="8000000" /> <p>Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" /> <p><input type="submit" value="Send File" /> </form> The action php script is as follows: <?php # uploading.php - Process the saving of an uploaded file $name = $_FILES[userfile][name]; $type = $_FILES[userfile][type]; $size = $_FILES[userfile][size]; print( "The file is called $name, type $type, size $size<br>" ); print( "Error message: $php_errormsg<br>" ); ?> I don't know how to see the error message, because when I submit a large file for uploading, it does not even execute the php script; the message "This document contains no data" pops up; if I click on "OK", the php script is not executed. I think I need a function that will catch the error before the system message pops up, but I don't know how to code it. So, that is why I am baffled. The error message that I see is not explanatory of the real situation. Mario Miyojim Sebastian Mendel wrote:

My problem: To upload large files. Although /etc/php.ini on my Linux server specifies upload_max_filesize = 8M post_max_size = 8M only files smaller than 512 kB are uploaded, while larger files fail with message "This document contains no data"

quota? free space? try setting display_errors and startup_errors on try track_errors with on

also, when using apache 1.3.2 or later, see the LimitRequestBody directive.

I set display_errors, startup_errors, track_errors On in php.ini, restarted Apache and reran an upload session. The only error message displayed upon attempt to upload a large file is "This document contains no data" The specified log file is empty.

did you check $php_errormsg ? "track_errors boolean If enabled, the last error message will always be present in the variable $php_errormsg."
