Обсуждение: Large file upload

Hi,

I'm trying to upload large files via my homepage. I'm using a form:
    print "<form enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" action=\"approve_element.php\"
method=\"POST\">";

And with files up to approx 500kb it works. But with larger files, the
browser can't find the page, and if I refresh the page, I get some query
errors. In the php.ini the post_max_size is set to 8M.

Kelvin :-)

Thanks everyone,
   The problem was lying in the hostname not specified which php as usual
wouldn't tell me
   pg_connect("host=$rr dbname=$rr user=$rr");

Thanks
Sharmad

If it's taking longer than about 25-30 seconds you could be timing out.
Try putting set_time_limit(0) at the top of the script.  If it works you
might want to try replacing the 0 with a reasonable time limit.  The time
is in seconds.

Not sure if it will or not.  I used it recently for a similar problem
but right now I don't recall if it was for an upload or something else.

Hi,

The upload takes more than 30 seconds, but I get the error immediately. I
dont think that the webserver is aware of the page will take longer than 30
seconds to upload and therefore sends an error at the beginning of the
upload.

Try putting set_time_limit(0) at the top of the script.  If it works you
might want to try replacing the 0 with a reasonable time limit.  The time

I seem to have trimmed the message out.  What exactly does the message
say and what server and browser are you using?
