Remository 3.53.2 Upload Limit 8M? - 2010/06/29 08:41 Hello

Remository 3.53.2

How can I increase the upload limit of 8MB?
Config is set in the backend 50MB?
If this change of Remository not recognized?

German:
Wie kann ich das Upload Limit von 8MB erhöhen ?
Im Backend Config ist 50MB eingestellt ?
Wird diese Anderung von Remository nicht anerkannt?

Gruss Reinhard,

Beim Versuch eine Datei hochzuladen ist ein Problem aufgetreten.

Error message: Unknown upload error
Real file name: No file name provided
File size (bytes): No file size provided
Temporary file path: No file path provided
Is it an uploaded file?: Nein

PHP file_uploads: Ja
PHP upload_tmp_dir: /is/htdocs/user_tmp/wp1144999_NKB4XHFOGF
PHP upload_max_filesize: 8M
PHP post_max_size: 8M

Points to watch out for are:

There should be no error message (typically, zero will be displayed)
The real file name should correspond with the name of the file you sent
The file size should be the correct size for the file you sent
Temporary file path should look like a genuine specification for a file on the host system. Its precise character will vary across different systems. It should be a valid path including the name of the temporary file. If it is not overriden by the PHP config (see below) the temporary path will be the system temporary directory with file name added. The file name is generated by the system.
If PHP is permitting file uploads, the file_uploads setting will be non zero.
There may be no temporary upload directory specified in the PHP config. In this case, the system temporary directory will be used. For a Unix style system, this defaults to /tmp but can be configured to be anything. If the file path is specified, you would expect it to form part of the temporary file path shown above, followed by the temporary name. A temporary upload directory specified to PHP will override the system temporary directory.
PHP will have a setting for the maximum permitted uploaded file size.
PHP also has a setting for the maximmum POST size, and the file upload is a POST so the setting must be at least a little larger than the maximum permitted upload size, or it will be a constraint on uploads.

Note that the PHP settings cannot be overriden by a program like Remository. If they are too restrictive, you need to talk to your hosting provider, or consider altering your PHP configuration if it is under your own control.

Re:Remository 3.53.2 Upload Limit 8M? - 2010/06/29 16:19 The 8 MB limit is set in the PHP configuration (php.ini) not in Remository. It cannot be changed by Remository. If you do not have the means to change your PHP configuration, you will need to consult your hosting provider. Martin Brampton aka Counterpoint

Re:Remository 3.53.2 Upload Limit 8M? - 2010/09/08 23:22 I've gotten this same error when uploading from the front-end or the back-end, using just a 4 MB file. Even though the stated limit in the error message is 8 MB. Then sometimes I'll get the "The file was unspecified" error when trying to upload a larger file. However I have successfully uploaded small PDFs and 2 MB movie files.

I'm very confused on what to try next. Running a fresh install of Joomla 1.5.20, CB 1.2.3 and Remository 3.53.

Re:Remository 3.53.2 Upload Limit 8M? - 2010/09/10 20:01 This kind of file upload failure is always due to the PHP configuration. Remember to check the POST limit as well as the file upload limit. Martin Brampton aka Counterpoint
