How Do I Increase The File Upload Size?

[benblee]

Is the upload size listed in "Configuration/Maximum Values/Maximum File Upload Size" in bytes? Default being "2048000"

I know, dumb question and the answer looks obvious. Just wanted to double check.

I am having difficult uploading a 4 meg file, even though I changed the admin settings as well as all these settings in both the php.ini and the .htaccess file...

php_value upload_max_filesize "100M"
php_value post_max_size "100M"
php_value memory_limit "16M"
php_value max_execution_time 1200


anyone know what could be going on?

I can tell you that most hosting companies have a cron task (I think cron is right) set up to re-write the file you probably edited to allow for larger uploads. I want to say that typical upload allowments are between 2MB and 8MB which isn't a lot.

Maybe post who you're hosting with and/or check for a php.ini file that can overwrite on a regular basis.

Sorry if you already knew all this stuff. I'm a beginner and this is one of the roadblocks I hit.

I am on a deticated Pentium 4 server, with Superb Hosting, I rechecked the php.ini, everything is still the way I left it.

switched all these settings in the php.ini

* file_uploads
* upload_max_filesize
* max_input_time
* memory_limit
* max_execution_time
* post_max_size

as well as the admin settings to let me upload 90 meg files and I can't upload 4-5 meg ones, any know what is going on, seems strange to me in my experience.
