Hi Michael,

The web host can impose arbitrary upload limits. If you have a PHP info script you can look for these settings: ( or a recent version of CMS Builder try: admin.php?menu=admin&action=phpinfo )

file_uploads
max_input_time
post_max_size
upload_max_filesize

Let me know if you can find those or not. If not I'll post a script for you to display them.

Re: [Dave] Larger Uploads Not Working

Hey Dave,

file_uploads ..... ON
max_input_time ..... 60
post_max_file ..... 8MB
upload_max_filesize ..... 10MB

Both local and master values were the same in each case.

I see that 10MB filesize is probably the trouble maker. Is there a way around that on my own or do I need to contact my host to ask for the changes?

Thanks again,
Michael Moyers

Hi there,

Since that's a server setting, you'd have to contact your host to see if they'll increase it for you. :)

Sometimes you can override it yourself with a custom php.ini file (look in the root of your website), but that as well is up to the host whether they provide that.
