Hi everyone!

I am trying to use this script I found to upload files from a form.

The form is on a separate page where the user browses for the file to upload and then when submit is pressed, on the next page is the upload code.

PHP Code:

copy ("$upload", "uploads/$upload_name")

or die("Could not copy the file, please contact the webmaster."); 

"$upload" was the name of the file field in the forum and "uploads" is the destination.

This script works fine with smaller files but when I try to upload larger files (about 1 MB) I get the "Could not copy the file" error. Most of the files that I will be uploading will be over 1 mb.

If anyone knows what is wrong, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Adam

try with move_uploaded_file() and check maxfile size in php.ini (probably not with that name)

Yep, i checked the php.ini and it says the max file size is 2mb. Thats the problem.

How would I change that to be larger? Thanks

Okay, i figured out how to increase the file limit

Im on a shared server so i didnt have access to the php.ini so I added the line
php_value upload_max_filesize "10M"
to the .htaccess file and it worked


Thanks,
Adam
