What exactly is 'dont work out well'? By default Apache does not limit size, and you would see a 403 or 413 error if that was at fault, but by default does cap script execution to 300 seconds.
To expand on Jon's comment; MOre likely is PHP configuration. To check the limits on php use phpinfo() in a script and check the output for these values upload_max_filesize <- max file size max_execution_time <- max time the parser will deal with a script max_input_time <- max time a script may deal with POST, GET or file uploads. post_max_size <- Sets max size of post data allowed. This setting also affects file upload. On Jan 25, 1:51 am, Jon Bennett <[email protected]> wrote: > > It allows me to upload smaller pdf files with no problem, but huge pdf's > > dont work out well.
