Are you on shared hosting?

Do you know the memory allocation PHP has been provided with?

hello

phpinfo() will tell you the max memory allowed, as well as the max filesize for file uploads.

But then again, if it's a memory or upload size limit, PHP will tell you this: make sure error_reporting is set to E_ALL, and check the contents of $_FILES['lie_file']['error'] - did the file upload correctly, or does it give you an error code? The error code, if any, will help you diagnose the problem. For a list of error codes, see this manual page: [man]features.file-upload.errors[/man].

hello for all and thanks for answer

I see the phpinfo() and the upload_max_filesize is only 2 mb , how can I up it .

should I go to the technical suuprt on the hosting company or can I do that without return to them?

thanks alot

Unless you have a way of modifying the php.ini config file (which you may have), yes, you'll have to contact the support staff of your hosting company and ask them how you can increase a couple of PHP directives, namely upload_max_filesize and post_max_size.
