Can anyone help me by providing the ways to upload a larger file say 60 MB ? I tried uploading it.. Maximum size i could upload is only 10 MB.

Regards & Thanks in Advance,
Gemini :P

Change the ini file to allow larger files. You will also need to allow more script time too.

Thanks for your immediate reply. I have tried changing upload_max_filesize, post_max_size, setting in .ini file but it dint not reflect any changes.

Did you restart apache afterwards? and not graceful, I would do a full apache restart.
i.e.

Code: Select all

> service httpd restart

Do you get any errors or timeouts? As you might have to increase script execution time and script input time.

Could you please try to post PHP related questions to their appropriate forum. General Discussion is not for things like this. If this is a code question post it to PHP - Code. If it is a configuration question post it to Installation and Configuration. Thanks.

I'll be moving this PHP code momentarily.
