Cannot upload large files

Hi

I have an app, where I should upload files...
Problem: when e.g. uploading 14MB (just 10MB) the page will load, then
go back to the original page.... by some reason I cannot upload large
files, larger than some 5 MB.

I cannot get any information it looks like my server just reloads the
original page.

Any ideas?

What does phpinfo() tell you about maximum upload size?

There's an option in your php.ini named: upload_max_filesize
(see: http://www.radinks.com/upload/config.php)

Got it - it says 12M(b). I'll look for a way to prompt that to the
user, and how to change that.

It's PHP_INI_PERDIR afaik, so php.ini, webserver configuration, and in the
case of Apache, .htaccess files.

That is, of course, if post_max_size hasn't been exceeded as well.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.post-max-size

If memory serves, the script loading will be aborted if the POST data
size is over the allowed size.

I really see my problem now - but my system is hosted at one.com,
where my client holds their stuff. I was just looking at/trying
ini_set, but that failed. Since I am new to this - can I change these
values in any way?

Or can I at least read these out, so I can inform the user of the max
file size?

php_info echoes it all right way...

From the page where you did get info on ini_set:
See Also
1) get_cfg_var()
2) ini_get()
3) ini_get_all()
4) ini_restore()
5) How to change configuration settings

so, try option 2, 3 or 5....

post max size/upload max size are AFAIK both PHP_INI_DIR, so you can
change those in php.ini/httpd.conf (which you probably can't reach), or an
..htaccess file, which most hosters allow. Most shared hosters I encounter
have a limit of something like 2M (which IMO is extremely low), but have
no problem if you up the limits for a specific script receiving files.

You are right. I cannot reach those, just talked to one.com about it.
Still, I have 12M which is more tnan you mention here :-) I should be
happy.
I guess I'll just have to explain my client that....
