How to Increase File Upload Sizes at Site5
To increase the maximum filesize you need to set 2 directives:
* upload_max_filesize - Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
* post_max_size - Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
Generally you should set post_max_size to double what you set upload_max_filesize to. This means you can upload 2 files of your maximum limit for each POST and seems like a good middle ground.
The memory_limit directive should also be set above the value of post_max_size so your server can handle the uploads.
The following came from http://freestylesystems.co.uk/blog/installng-pecl-uploadprogress-extensi...
There are 2 ways you can set this directive:
php.ini
Edit php.ini and modify these directives:
upload_max_filesize = 128M
post_max_size = 256M
.htaccess
Edit .htaccess and add:
php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
php_value post_max_size 256M
Adjust 128M and 256M with the sizes you require.
Increasing PHP's Memory Limit
You could edit the memory_limit directive in php.ini but I personally like to set that directive on a site-by-site basis. This helps to keep sites that don't need such a large memory_limit nice and efficient.
Instead you can set the directive in settings.php by adding this line just below the other ini_set lines:
ini_set('memory_limit', '256M');
The attached php.ini is from site5's wiki page as of Feb, 2009. I increased the upload_max_filesize to 10M and the post_max_size to 20M.
