File Upload - Large File

Hello community,

in the File Upload "large" files don't work. I have set the limit of 1048576 KB (1 GB), but already 30 MB does not work, file independently. Small files goes. No errors in the debugger...

Can someone help me?


Regards Zach

Hello Zachary88,

P.S: I'm just an automated service😉

Thanks. I've already read a lot of it ... Small files also work. Only relatively largefiles not ... Although I have set it to 1GB.

Hi Zach,

You probably don't want to upload 1GB files from a form - there has to be a better way,

What are the limits in your PHP.ini file - check the PHP Info tab in the Site Admin to see?

Bob

Hi Bob,

at PHP Information I do see for example:
post_max_size 8M
upload_max_filesize 128M

Hi Zach,

Then you should be OK for a 30Mb file - try adding a Custom Code action with this code in the On Submit event

<?php
echo'<div>$_FILES: '.print_r($_FILES, true).'</div>';
?>

and add a Debugger action. Submit the form and see if the $_FILES array shows any error codes.

Bob

I add the Custom Code, nothing change...

debugger:

$_FILES: Array ( )

Array
(
    [option] => com_chronoforms5
    [chronoform] => Datei-Upload
    [event] => submit

What is "post_max_size 8M" in PHP Information?


Regards Zach

Hi Zack,

Hmm . . . post_max_size does include files - see this StackOverFlow answer

Bob

Hi Bob,

that is the reason of 8M? I have to set higher in the PHP Configuration at the server, right?


Zach

Hi Zach,

Yes I think so - php configuration is not my specialty.

Bob

Hi Zach,

I'm just wondering if you already set the file size limit in the Joomla too. I am not sure if it is necessary...
