PHP error message
News and General
“The uploaded file exceeds the maximum allowed size in your PHP configuration file.”
this is the error i get when i try to upload a file in a post. i checked the maximum file size in the file manager for that upload folder, there is no maximum set. the error is not a “browser” error, but one that EE is displaying to me within the EE control panel.
i’m using EE 5.26
is this an error that comes from my hosting services’ PHP configuration file? or is this error from my EE installation that i can change? i cannot find in settings where i could change this option.
the file is a 4mb mp3 file, small images in a different folder upload fine.
Yep, that’s a PHP settings issue. If you go to Developer- Utilities and look in PHP Info, you should be able to find the relevant settings- check upload_max_filesize and possibly post_max_size.
You may be able to override them with htaccess, or via php.ini - see here.
