Hi there!

No problem. What you would want to do is, edit your php.ini file. Typically that would be housed in /etc/php5/php.ini, if not there you can run php -i |grep php.ini to find the loaded configuration file.

Once you have found the correct PHP configuration file, you would want to edit the line that says:

postmaxsize
uploadmaxsize

Increase the size of which you would like to utilize, feel free to allow it to be a bit larger than what your file you are having trouble uploading is. You’ll lastly want to save the phi.ini file, after making these changes. Lastly, re-attempt at uploading your file.

      Sorry guys, answering this one in portuguese…

      Oi Cristiano,

      Você tem que se logar no shell via ssh.
      Para achar o arquivo php.ini instale o programa mlocate com o comando:
      sudo yum -y install mlocate
      depois atualize o banco de dados do mlocate com o comando:
      sudo updatedb
      Para achar o arquivo use o comando:
      locate php.ini
      Na minha máquina, Centos 7, está em:
      /etc/php.ini

      Para editar o arquivo use o comando:
      sudo vi /etc/php.ini

      Você tem que procurar estas linhas:

      maxpostsize = 10M
      uploadmaxfilesize = 10M

      e trocar pelo valor que achar conveniente.

      Para achar a linha dentro do vi use o comando:
      /uploadmaxfilesize

      Ele acha a linha e marca o texto..
      para editar a linha aperte a tecla “i” e o vi entra no modo de edição:

      Substitua os valores desejados, por exemplo:
      uploadmaxfilesize = 20M

      Para salvar as alterações e sair do programa aperte:
      Esc

      e depois..

      :wq

      Se você está usando o Apache acho que você tem que reiniciar depois…

      sudo service httpd restart

      Abraço

    I don’t know why you are getting this error. Try to skip this step and edit the file directly:

    sudo vi /etc/php.ini

      I am seeing that you can open the file. Can you edit it? Try to find the line inside vi with the command:
      /uploadmaxsize
      Justo to clarify, the above command is “forward slash + upload + underscore + max + underscore + size” . I don’t know why the underscore character was not printed in my initial post.
