Multimedia Uploads

[LeMans350z]

I have having issues uploading multimedia files. The upload page is refreshing with no error message and I can not find the file in the system.

The file is a .wmv with the following file size:
8,951 KB

I have changed the following settings in the admin panel:

Allow multimedia uploads? Yes
Maximum multimedia upload size in Kb - 400000
Acceptable multimedia file types? .mpeg,.mpg,.avi,.asf,.wmv,.mov

I have done a search on this site for more information and found some relating to the php setup.

I checked my php settings for the following:

memory_limit - NOT FOUND IN MY SETTINGS
max_execution_time SET TO 30
post_max_size SET TO 8M
Max_upload_filesize - NOT FOUND IN MY SETTINGS

Questions:

Should I have the memory_limit variable set? What value should I set it to when I talk to my host?

What value should I set the max_execution_time to when I talk to my host?

post_max_size is smaller than the file I have been testing. What would be a good recommendation to change this value to when I talk to my web host? I am thinking that I need to change it to between 35 to 50 M.

Should I have the Max_upload_filesize variable set? What value should I set it to?

Thank you for your help.

Correct your php is not set to allow uploads over 2mb

Try this

memory limit 32M

max execution time 0

post max size 20M

max upload size 20M


If you restart your server and php is set to allow large uploads you should then have this work with these changes.
