File Upload issue - Unable to Upload a Large File

[David]

I am using PHP Version 4.4.3 under Linux/Apachie to upload files.
The PHP.ini upload_max_filesize is 2M, which I need to override this
in the HTML (see below). I changed the MAX_FILE_SIZE to 4,000,000
but the system only accepts files less than 2M.

Is the override wrong, do I need to raise the limit in the PHP.ini
file, or is the Apachie issue.
<form name="upload" action="admin.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="4000000">

You can't override it in the HTML (it would be pointless if you could).

I changed the MAX_FILE_SIZE to 4,000,000
but the system only accepts files less than 2M.

This is correct.

>do I need to raise the limit in the PHP.ini file,

Yes.

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ini.php

upload_max_filesize -- PHP_INI_PERDIR (PHP_INI_ALL in PHP <= 4.2.3.)

Look in the PHP uploading documentation. There are TWO limits you can
encounter: the max upload filesize and the max post size. Both should be
set on the server, but is is good to include the field on the client as
well.

Best regards.
