Large File Upload
Posted: Tue Jul 25, 2006 8:12 pm
Anyone care to take a stab at this.....
I have a client that uses a back-end that uploads files to thier site. In a previous incarnation(previous host,no safe mode) the client swears the site was able to upload files of 1.5mb in size. I can believe that because set_time_limit() function was used in the upload script which worked fine because safemode was off
Client switched hosting (new host , safe mode ON) and then site got droppend into my lap
So now client tries to upload files of 1.5 mb it times out (actually anything over 700k times out
)
New Host Admin will/can not change the default max_execution_time from the default of 30 secs.
So my question is this.
Based on the assumption that there has to be some site out there written in php that is capable of uploading 1.5 mb files to the server, with safemode on ( default) and max_execution_time 30 ( also default), and because you cant overide timeout with set_time_limit()
How can it be done?
