Max File Upload Size (nothing works)

[zeze36]

I am using a PHP/MySQL application that allows me upload files into a web directory using POST. I cannot upload files larger than 2 MB. I have changed max upload size in php.ini, increased timeout time. etc. Nothing works.

Has anyone else encountered this issue? The files are not uploaded into MySQL.

Any more ideas how to up the max file upload size?

This might be a silly question, but did you restart the web server after you change the php.ini ?

Just checked with a bright young thing I know and he reckons you might need to try a java applet. He has spent alot of time trying to resolve this issue in the past. I'm not sure the max size he hit but it wouldn't be much more than the 2MB you've got.

The problem was php.ini was in the wrong place and so default max upload sizxes were being used. I moved php.ini to /usr/lib and now it works great i can upload HUGE files. phpinfo() was the trick. it showed me where php expected to find php.ini in the Configuration File Path row. Thanks for all the help
