[PHP] uploading files and MAX_FILE_SIZE and php.ini

2003-02-13 Thread David T-G
Hi, all --

Yes, I'm back again with another upload question.  I promise I've been
paying attention in class, but I just can't get this to work!

The default upload_max_filesize in my php.ini was 2M, but I changed it to
200M and restarted the server, and now phpinfo() reports 200M.  I created
a dinky little upload form, which is attached, to either accept an upload
or tell me that it got one, and I can successfully upload files of 7M
(much bigger than the original 2M).  After initial failures, I added a
hidden form field MAX_FILE_SIZE as has been suggested (but sometimes
contested) in other posts.  I still cannot, however, upload anything
larger; a 9M file as well as some 30M and 40M tests just doesn't appear.

I have only 5-10M of my 256M available, but I have 90M of swap free and
over 1G free on /, the monolithic root partition.

Now I'm at a loss for where to turn to fix this.  It would seem that
everything is in place!  Is there an apache directive that I need as
well, perhaps?


TIA  HAND

:-D

You might also check out your timeout value in php.ini

Ahhh...  After reading it *twice* I realized that I'm using method='post'
and so I need to set post_max_size as well.  I've now confirmed that I
can upload multiple MAX_FILE_SIZE files up to post_max_size :-)

Yeah, I feel stupid, but I'm happy :-)

I'll definitely need to tweak that for the real world, but this was
locally on a laptop.  It was fun to watch the two drive lights flash back
and forth as I watched my free space go down by 200M or so :-)

Oh, yeah -- and now I need to see if I can override php.ini settings in
my script because the production server is set to 2M :-)

This should not have an effect because PHP only starts executing *after* the 
file has been fully uploaded.
