Hi,
I have updated upload_max_filesize in php.ini (which is in the php_info()) and restarted the apache with
sudo service apache2 restart
But php_info() still showing upload_max_filesize as 2M. I even tried to restart the server but the same result. I changed the post_max_size but it is showing as 8M.
Can someone give solution to this?

You are changing in the wrong place inside php.ini, you must search and change the following, then restart apache.
; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept. ; Its value may be 0 to disable the limit. It is ignored if POST data reading ; is disabled through enable_post_data_reading. ; http://php.net/post-max-size post_max_size = 512M
best, max.
Hello,
Hello,
You can create a php info file in order to check the current values and check which is the php.ini file in use. Create the following file in your public_hmtl folder - phpinfo.php and put the following code inside it:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
You can also use the following command in order to find the location of the php.ini file:
php -i | grep php.ini
The output will be:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /etc/php/7.2/cli
Loaded Configuration File => /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
Then check for the current value of uploadmaxfilesize you can also check which is the configuration file - php.ini that is currently used and apply the changes there (if the site using the global php.ini file and you change the values for these settings this will make the changes globally for all sites). Ideally you would like to have the following values:
upload_max_filesize = 64M
You also need to restart your web server in order the changes to take effect.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
