Upload problem

[Nito]

I have a problem with uploads, i have set max filesize to 20mb. and set max_execution_time to 0 (diabled?) in php.ini and there is a global limit on the webhotell at 20mb. so that shouldnt be a problem, but as soon as i try to upload anything bigger than 5 mb. all i get after a long time is a blank screen?
i have enabled mulitmedia uploads and premissions in edit usergroups is set to 20480k,
what have i missed?

max_uploaded_file
memory_limit
post_maxsize
max_execution_time

Those are the things I would look for when we talking php settings. Your host can also have a max file upload restriction set in your apache setup as well so PHP is not the only bottleneck but check and up your settings on the things above and try uploading.

what values would you suggest for a limit of 20mb in the above settings?

[Chuck S]

execution 0 memory limit as high as you can go. post max and max file set the same.

done some tries again, sometimes i can upload a 18 mb. file, but it takes forever, slow webhotell?
how do i find out the memory_limit?

You can view your php settings in admin under PHPINFO. Yes this whole large file upload is totally dependent on your server setup.
