PHP File UPLOAD

Postby shuja_khan » 13. April 2009 17:47

Hi,

I am using XAMPP ver 1.6.8

Windows Server 2003 SP2

I am using phpbb ver 3.0.4

I want to enable my staff to upload large attachments to our local internal forum, some of these files may be as large as 4 to 6GB.

phpbb allowd the attachment to upload the files, but it is relying on PHP file upload instruction in XAMPP.

I have modified following files in this sequence.

c:\XAMPP\apache\bin\php.ini
c:\XAMPP\php\php.ini

& change the following instructions in both files, but which one is the primary file. But had done it on both just in case.

; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 9999M

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 9999M

Then I stop APACHE & start again APACHE, When I check phpinfo() it do shows that the instruction is now effective.

But my phpbb is not working in terms of large file attachments.

But when I do it on another machine i.e. XP SP2, doing same steps, my phpbb is able to work.

I am bit confused, as why php.ini instruction is not applicable.

Can some some please advise if they have seen such problem.

Thanks in advance

you may have these set but be sure these two are also set.

file_uploads = On
upload_tmp_dir = "C:\xampp\tmp"

Did you also set the file size limits in your Admin Panel in phpBB3 under:
Board Configuration>Attachment settings?
