After Several hours trying to figure out why changes to php.ini doesn’t work on max upload size, i decided to take other path…so here goes the....
Ways of making work changes to uploadmaxfilesize, or php.ini max upload size doesn’t work:
FIRST remember to also increase postmaxsize just in case is that the limit as that one overrides uploadmaxfilesize…
Here goes the ways to make work uploadmaxfilesize without touching PHP.ini!!!!
APACHE
Add next content to .htaccess file at your app or site directory:
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
phpvalue uploadmaxfilesize 40M
phpvalue postmaxsize 40M
</IfModule>
or
NGINX
Add this to the conf file of the site or application (usually at /etc/nginx/sites-available)
location ~ .php$ {
fastcgiparam PHPVALUE “uploadmaxfilesize = 50M \n postmaxsize=51M”;
}
or
CREATE A FILE user.ini (where user is the user that have access to that folder, usually files are owned by this user) put this file on the directory where the php is located, user.ini must have next content:
uploadmaxfilesize = 40M
postmaxsize = 40M
or
PHP CODE
Inside the php that must upload the file or files at the top inside php brackets of course, put:
iniset(‘postmaxsize’, '64M’);
iniset('uploadmaxfilesize’, '64M’);
One of this solutions must work, in my case was the Apache one, and worked perfect, try yours!!!
