Geeklog Forums

O.k. I have edited php.ini to have 40M for file uploads, but I am getting an error when I try to upload a file. Here is the error:

PHP Warning: POST Content-Length of 19457939 bytes exceeds the limit of 8388608 bytes in Unknown on line 0, referrer: http://***.***.***.***:***/gl/admin/plugins/filemgmt/index.php?op=newfileConfigAdmin

I have searched the forum for this and came up with nothing. I have also looked in the index.php file in /admin/plugins/filemgmt for 8388608 but it isn't there.

thanks in advance.

Sorry, I wasn't logged in when I types that. anyways, I wanted to edit it and say this is on geeklog 1.3.9 and is setup using aeonserv 1.5.25

I believe as you stated, it is due to the size limit in php.ini. Has nothing to do with GL. I would recommend typing part of the error in Google. There is plenty of literature about it.

There is also a MAX_POST limit set in php.ini. You may want to check that.

There are no limitations in the plugin on size - it's what ever the webserver will allow (PHP is part of the webserver environment).

Yea, it is a file size limitation, or it may even be a .zip file problem. I recompressed the file as a .rar, which brough it down to 6.22MB and it uploaded perfectly.
I took a look at the article, but it didn't help out any
I also upped the php.ini to 90M.

Here is something I am thinking, even though the php.ini has the default limitation set to 2MB, when changing it should I put something like 6,523,492 for a 6.22meg file? From the looks of that error I had a limitation of 8meg even though I had the php.ini set to 40M

Now that I know I can upload 6 meg files, I am going to see if I can do 10meg

(this worked for my RedHat9 install)

in /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf, increase the value of LimitRequestBody.
It is by default 524288 (0x80000)
Change it to something large - I used 10485760 (0xA00000) which gives me 10Mb, heaps of upload capacity.
