Simple PHP file uploading script... can't upload anything > 1 meg...

[Jakobud]

Hello everyone,

I followed a simple tutorial online for using PHP to create a form on a page to allow me to upload multiple files to my website. However the problem i am facing is that it doesn't seem to upload anything greater than approx 1 meg... When I choose a big jpg (like the 5 meg one I tested with) it would go through the whole process and take a while as if it really was uploading... but then when looking at the contents of the destination folder it just wasn't there... i don't know why happened to it. I thought that adding this would fix the problem:

print &quot;<INPUT TYPE='hidden' name='MAX_FILE_SIZE' value='10000000'>&quot;;

So that would limit my file size to 10 megs which is fine for what I need it for. But same problem in the end...

Anyways here is the php file:

http://www.jakobud.com/upload/upload.php

Here is the download directory:

http://www.jakobud.com/upload/

Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to test it out and take a look at the php code and see if you can determine the problem and offer a solution...

BTW here is my php code:


<?php
$numoffile = 10;
// Fix path of your file to be uploaded, don't forget to CHMOD 777 to this folder
$file_dir = &quot;/home/jakobudc/public_html/upload/&quot;;
if ($_POST) {
for ($i=0;$i<$numoffile;$i++) {
if (trim($_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i])!=&quot;&quot {
$newfile = $file_dir.$_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i];
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['myfiles']['tmp_name'][$i], $newfile);
$j++;
}
}
}
if (isset($j)&&$j>0) print &quot;Your file(s) has been uploaded.<br>&quot;;
print &quot;<br>&quot;;
print &quot;Choose 10 files to upload...&quot;;
print &quot;<br>&quot;;
print &quot;<form method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data'>&quot;;
print &quot;<INPUT TYPE='hidden' name='MAX_FILE_SIZE' value='10000000'>&quot;;
for($i=0;$i<$numoffile;$i++) {
print &quot;<input type='file' name='myfiles[]' size='50'><br>&quot;;
}
print &quot;<input type='submit' name='action' value='Upload'>&quot;;
print &quot;</form>&quot;;
print &quot;<br>&quot;;
print &quot;<a href=

http://www.jakobud.com/upload/>Return

to UPLOAD directory</a>&quot;;
?>

Are you sure its not limited my the php.ini file on the server?

I am assuming that file uploads smaller than 1MB go through okay. If PHP is barfing on all file uploads, make sure that the php.ini setting &quot;file_uploads&quot; is set to &quot;on&quot;.

There are two settings in php.ini that may limit the actual size of an upload: upload_max_filesize and post_max_size. Check that both of those values are larger than 1MB.

Also, your web server itself may be limiting the size of an upload.
