Enhance PHP Memory LIMIT, Upload FILE LIMIT and EXECUTION TIME: PART - 2


In this article, we will discuss about Enhancing File UPLOAD LIMIT.

Set Upload File Size Limit your php installation putting limits on upload file size. The default will restrict you to a max 2 MB upload file size. You need to set the following three configuration options: - upload_max_filesize - The maximum size of an uploaded file. - memory_limit - This sets the maximum amount of memory in bytes that a script is allowed to allocate. This helps prevent poorly written scripts for eating up all available memory on a server. Note that to have no memory limit, set this directive to -1. - post_max_size - Sets max size of post data allowed. This setting also affects file upload. To upload large files, this value must be larger than upload_max_filesize. If memory limit is enabled by your configure script, memory_limit also affects file uploading. Generally speaking, memory_limit should be larger than post_max_size.

There are two methods two fix this problem.

2.1. php.ini configuration - Locate the php.ini file used by your web server. You can use the phpinfo() PHP function to find it. - find and modify next parameters: memory_limit = 32M upload_max_filesize = 10M post_max_size = 20M - restart Apache

2.2. .htaccess configuration - This is useful when you do not have access to php.ini file. Edit (Create) the.htaccess file in the site root (public) directory and add the following line: php_value upload_max_filesize 10M php_value post_max_size 20M php_value memory_limit 32M This method will only work if PHP is running as an Apache module.
