I have been trying to solve this problem for a week now.
I am using php and I cannot upload files that are larger than 2 MB in size.
I have messed with post_max_size, upload_max_filesize and max_execution_time in php.ini…nothing works.
Any ideas?
2 megabytes really is a lot to upload through php, i think files this big gotta be ftp’ed… im not really sure…
I want to let users upload mp3s to my server.
It must be web based.
Can I do this?
Any suggestions?
The problem you have uploading large files using any browser based upload method is that the server process times out before the upload completes. The only solution is to extend the default timeout value, but that has serious performance ramifications on a web server, so unless your site is on it’s own box the system admin isn’t likely to do that.
are you talking about max_execution_time?
I understand what you are saying but I am running this whole system on my own computer via IIS. The upload time is almost instantaneous. I am very stumped.
But maybe I should’nt do it this way if my future host is unwilling to allow for a long execution time.
What are common or more practical ways for uploading large files(3-15 MB) to a server via a website(a browser)??
Need HELP…
