great. that worked like a charm. I am having one more problem uploading larger zip files.

I am pretty sure (from previous experience) this is due to my upload_max_filesize being set to 2M. I think changing that will fix the problem. My question is, what other php.ini settings should I change or consider changing?

Is there some list of recommended settings for php.ini? It seems like there should be but I searched a fair amount and couldnt find anything.

I am not sure what all those settings do, but it seems like I should consider changing:

upload_max_filesize
post_max_size
max_execution_time
max_input_time

but I have no real understanding of what reasonable settings would be, as I dont understand specifically what each one does.

- The times are in seconds right? Is 15 minutes each reasonable??

- Is there any limit for maximum file sizes within PHP? I remember reading a long time ago that there was a PHP limit around 20 megabytes. Has that changed? Can I set these to 50 megabytes?

- Should I leave any of these settings alone?

- Are there other settings I should change?

It seems like answers to all these questions would be in the installation manual or in the forums but I was unable to find it either place... if I am missing it please tell me where to look, otherwise, I appreciate you getting back to me when you have a chance.
