Files over 2MB

[BarbulaM1]

I need my users to upload files over 2MB, but can't set php.ini cause well we don't have access to it on SimGames. So how would I override the php.ini? Or how can I make it so I my users can upload more than 2MB?

Bump, I really need help on this. Please help me.

Why do you want it bigger? There should be nothing that your users need to upload that is that big.

Plus, if the script you use to upload things is using MySQL and the files are stored in the database then the upload size is 1 MB for MySQL. Nothing needs to be changed. If you want to host big files then upload them on a server that is made to host them.

Like Loh suggested, the 2 MB upload limitation is there to prevent server abuse, and generally speaking you shouldn't be having users upload very large files to the server.

If you let me know specifically what size limitations you can deal with, I'll consider increasing the limitation, but I'm not going to let people upload 100 MB files, and I won't remove the limitation.

lol the sizes he would need are not 100 mb :P It is more like 15mb at most :P

[BarbulaM1]

15MB would be plenty, also the script that Im useing will prevent anyother type of file than what I specify which is most compressed formats. My users will be uploading SimCity 4 cities in compressed format, so Rich is right on with the 15MB.

I think 15 mb is good.

i agree

The PHP upload file size limit has been raised to 15 MB. Please don't ask me to raise it any further. That should be plenty! :)

Let me know if it doesn't seem to be working for some reason or other.

I'm still gettin the 2 meg limit, has it been changed on the new server?

[KStange]

The limit has been reset to 15 MB. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[frthmeb]

is it really an inconvenience considering we get this all for free? we should be thanking you, not you apologizing :D

THX SIMGAMES!
