Hi, Bogdan, Thanks for your help. It isn't a SQL error. I do not upload the file to a database.
I have been able to upload a 4M file. I really think it is because the memory_limit of the server is 8M. And that means that it doesn't have enough resource to copy the uploaded file from the temporary folder to the proper one. I wanted to have confirmation about that and find a way to solve this problem. Pierre ------------- En réponse à Bogdan Stancescu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Do you get a PHP or a SQL error?
