RE: [PHP] File Upload size limit
You can also do this all in a php file without changing the directives in either .htaccess or the httpd.conf file. Here is a sample: Hope that helps, Josh Thomas RPS Internet Services -Original Message- From: Oliver Schonrock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 2:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] File Upload size limit Sorry for bringing up an old problem, (there seem to be many articles in the archives already) but I couldn't find the solution there so here is my version of the problem ;-) I am running php 4.2.2 on a virtual host, so I have no access to php.ini. But I can use the apache directives in .htaccess which has worked well for me so far. So i have the following directives in the .htaccess in the directory where the relevant upload script is located: php_value memory_limit 34M php_value post_max_size 33M php_value upload_max_filesize 32M php_value max_execution_time 600 So I have memory_limit > post_max_size > upload_max_filesize experimentation shows that uploads greater than 8M bomb out. So I check phpinfo() and guess what? It reports post_max_size = 8M. The other 3 config settings have been changed correctly from their master (default) values. but for some reason the post_max_size 33M has been ignored. I know that some priviledges are required to be able to change these settings via .htaccess (namely "AllowOverride Options" or "AllowOverride All" privileges) but i thought that these applied to all the settings. So since I can change the first three why not the last one? Can my host stop me from changing a single config? If so how, and what do they need to change so I can get post_max_size = 33M? Or have i missed something really really stupid?

Re: [PHP] File Upload size limit
Thanks for quick response. Just a couple of silly questions: - changed where? in php or apache? My host is running the "three week old" v 4.2.2 of php so I guess you mean apache? - If I can in fact get them to change it in http.conf for my virtual host block then I will have these huge (!) settings for my whole site rather than just the necessary scripts. Is there any downside to this (other than misbehaved scripts being really misbehaved)?

Re: [PHP] File Upload size limit
post_max_size and upload_max_filesize could not be set in your .htaccess file until recently. It was changed about 3 weeks ago, so unless your provider is running a recent snapshot, you won't be able to get this to work. Ask your provider to add those lines to your virtualhost block in the httpd.conf file. -Rasmus On Tue, 13 Aug 2002, [ISO-8859-1] Oliver Schönrock wrote: > Sorry for bringing up an old problem, (there seem to be many articles in > the archives already) but I couldn't find the solution there so here is my > version of the problem ;-) > > I am running php 4.2.2 on a virtual host, so I have no access to php.ini. > But I can use the apache directives in .htaccess which has worked well for > me so far.

Re: [PHP] File Upload Size Limit Problem
If you have been changed your php.ini to accept larger uploaded files. Then there are many possibilities. If you explain what kind of environment you have and it's settings, someone might be able to help you.

You need to edit your php.ini
Read your php.ini and look for upload_max_filesize.
