file transfer

[Guillaume ALLEON]

I use POST to transfer a file from my client to the server. It is
working up to a limit. Trying to transfer a file of 60 MBytes fails
with an error message of 3 which seems to mean "file partially
transfered" ?!

I did tried to increase both max_execution_time & max_input_time
without success ?

Is there a way to have php a bit more talkative ?

I did set in /etc/php.ini:

post_max-size = 80M
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; File Uploads ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default
if not
; specified).
;upload_tmp_dir =

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 80M

and in /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf

#
<Files *.php>
SetOutputFilter PHP
SetInputFilter PHP
AcceptPathInfo On
LimitRequestBody 2097152
</Files>

Any suggestion ? - I am running RedHat 9 & php-4.3.4-1.1.

Why do you want to send something so big via a http POST? Let us know -
there might be better ways to upload your file.

Well, .. first I want to ask why this one shold fail ?
But I use it because it cross firewall and I must admit this is the
only one I know since I am starting with PHP ;-)

Thanks

I don't know. I'm just going to ask a whole heap of dumb questions that I'm
sure you already thought of.
Do you have a disk quota? Is there enough room on your hard drive to
actually store the file? How much physical memory is in your computer?

I've never tried a 60MB file - as someone else replied at
http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthr...32#post1162432 it is a
pretty big file - another method may be more reliable.

Sorry I can't help any more - maybe someone else can come up with an
answer - I'd be particularly interested to see if there's a solution.

Actually that's good questions but I already check these parameters. I
also saw one post with the same problem on 5K files ...

At last I will go to an other solution (but I would have like to know
the reason of this problem ;-) )
