Serendipity Forums

Hi,


would any of you know why I cannot upload files, some sizes are ok, but larger sizes, i cannot. I want to upload small home videos, so family members can download them. most of them are around 8-10 mb.

I changed the file size allowed in php.ini to 10000M and restarted apache, but still no dice. I tried under download manager plugin, and also under add media. I cant get the FTP program I have to work properly either so Id rather not even go that route. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi!

You must not only change the php.ini file size, but also the http upload limit as well as the memory_limit and timelimit. Each of them play together.

HTH,

hi, thanks, worked perfectly.
some how i wish that the memory requirememnts and upload restrictions were right in the config panel where they should be, and not hidden in another file lol!??!

Unfortunately, it's not a Serendipity restriction. If it was, we'd have it in our config. But it's a server-side PHP restriction, so we can't even tell where the php.ini is going to be (servers often move it around).
