[Resolved] file uploading size problem

Hexidecimal

Hi,
I'm running apache 2.0.47 on a Win2k machine with PHP 4.3 (whatever the latest version is)..

Anyway, I am using a script I found that uses the move_uploaded_file. I got the command to work ok, and I can upload files. They even go into the proper folder.

My problem is that I can't seem to get it to allow something that is over 2 or 3 MB. I've searched through the threads on here and set the values I could find to allow 90 megabyte file uploads, but maybe I'm missing one? 90 megabytes is a bit gratuitous, however it would not be uncommon to have 10MB files uploaded routinely to the site.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

you can change the size of your upload with max_file_size or changing it in your php.ini

also, could you post the code, are your sure it is merely a file size problem

Here is the code I'm using for the routine:

<?php
if (!session_is_registered("SESSION"))
{
	// if session check fails, invoke error handler
	header("Location: /error.php?e=2");
	exit();
}

$store="C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/TU/Documents/";  

 if(!move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'],$store.$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name']))  

{  

echo '<br>Unable to sucessfully upload image file<br>';  

}
else
{
echo '<br>file was sucessfully uploaded<br>';
}
?>

Additionally, I have already set the max_file_size to 90MB in the php.ini file:

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 90M

and it only happens on large files, have you looked at the timeout in your php.ini, the default is 30 seconds, your script may be timing out

I think it had somethign to do with my setup.
I've had other problems, but I think it is all ok now.

Thanks for the help!

stolzyboy

what did you fix in your setup, it may help others in the future

I set the max download to 20M from 2M.

I had done this before, but I had recopied my php.ini file from a fresh one.

Earlier I was having problems even though I has this set up high. I'm not sure what that problem was though, and I will probably never know, as my setup is a bit different now.
