upload_max_filesize - The perfect ubuntu server ISPConfig 3

Question

I have looked at all the posts regarding upload_max_filesize but am still not making any progress! any help would be appreciated.

I have set

vi /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 20M 

also

vi /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 20M

ini_get('upload_max_filesize') reports 2M

mem limit is 128M Where else do I need to go looking [apache config?].

In addition I cannot for the life get this to work either!

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED
display_errors = On

error_reporting is getting logged OK so at least I have some feedback. chrome gives internal server error firefox gives blank page.

I am using ubuntu server 10.10 ISPConfig 3 for learning about linux OS and php programming.

thanks

Answer 1

this method works and is great if your setting for one website or for defaulting a servers cgi, if u have multiple sites, that need different settings for each site, your way will be will be the default for all sites added to the panel.

If you have multiple sites

what u can do is set your default like above.

and for each individual site, you can add the custom values in the sites tab on ispconfig 3..

click your website in the sites tab in ispconfig, and then select the options tab for that website.

there should be two input boxes for setting custom php settings and apache2 for that site individually on ispconfig 3.

in The php custom add your custom settings

display_errors = On
post_max_size = 48M
upload_max_filesize = 24M

below is where u can manually edit php.ini's.

site wide cgi would be:

/etc/php5/cgi

sites on the configs individual php.ini, should b located in:

/var/www/conf/web1/php.ini 

web1 above is for site #1 on the panel. for other sites it would b web 2, for site 2 and so on and so forth.

if want to make your own custom php.ini's you can place your own custom in:

/etc/php5/cgi/conf.d 

also be sure to make a info.php using any text editor,

<? phpinfo(); ?>

save as info.php

and upload it to your site to find exact locations of your php.ini if unsure where they are..

Answer 2

My method is detailed here: http://www.breckers.co.uk/increase-php-maximum-upload-size-with-ispconfig/

Basically, in ISPConfig, set the following for the Custom php.ini settings under the sites>###site###>Options Tab

upload_max_filesize = 25M
post_max_size = 25M

Save, wait for the Jobqueue to finish (viewable under monitor)

And finally, restart the web service, or the server to make sure.

Answer 3

update: upload_max_filesize I managed to resolve my problem on my own. Setting the vars in the following file.

/etc/php5/cgi vi php.ini

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED
display_errors = On
post_max_size = 48M
upload_max_filesize = 24M
