[RESOLVED] Changed php.ini upload filesize but.

Hello everyone,
heres whats going on... im trying to get an upload script (php) to upload more then 1.5 megs. right now it is uploading files fine but once it gets a file that is over 1.5 megs, it gives me back an error.....

"The uploaded file for field file1 exceeds the maximum file size."

in the php script is says:

if (is_array($_FILES[$name]) == true) {
					$field = str_replace("_", " ", $name);
					# First check to see if there's an error associated with this file.
					if ($_FILES[$name]['error'] == UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE) {
						errorMsg("The uploaded file for field $field exceeds the maximum file size.");
						continue;
					} elseif ($_FILES[$name]['error'] == UPLOAD_ERR_FORM_SIZE) {
						errorMsg("The uploaded file for field $field exceeds the maximum file size.");
						continue;
					} elseif ($_FILES[$name]['error'] == UPLOAD_ERR_PARTIAL) {
						errorMsg("The uploaded file for field $field failed, it was only partially uploaded.");
						continue;
					}

on the php.ini file it says:

upload_max_filesize 20M 20M

also, on the form itself, it has this line on the form

Does anyone know how i can make it possible for someone to be able to upload close to 10 megs per field? What might i be missing here or doing wrong that is giving me that message?

thanks in advance.

One thing is to make sure you restarted the web server after making changes to php.ini

The other thing is to check on the value of post_max_size, which limits how large a POST can be. Since files are generally POSTed, this also limits the size of files that can be uploaded.

Thank you for the quick responce.

I restarted the server and tried it. No luck there. Still getting the same message.

the post_max_size is set to 8 Megs so i didnt need to touch that.

im testing a 3 meg file first to see if that uploads. with all the changes i have made, this seems like a safe file size to test to see if it has broken the 1.5 limit.

Do you have any other suggestions to try???

Who would have thought that restarting the server would do the trick. I spoke to soon before.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!!
