I need to change upload limit to 2GB on php 7.2 Ubuntu 16.04.
As a first step, when I check /etc/php/7.2 folder I can see cli and
fpm folders.
So to make sure the ini location I have print the php info using
echo phpinfo()
And I got the output
Server API : FPM/FastCGI
Virtual Directory Support : disabled
Configuration File (php.ini) Path : /etc/php/7.2/fpm
Loaded Configuration File : /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini
And I have edited /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini with
upload_max_filesize = 2048M
And restarted the apache but using phpinfo() still it print
upload_max_filesize 2M
So I have tried with command php -i | grep -i "loaded configuration file" but it print different configuration file,
Loaded Configuration File => /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
On this file also I have changed upload_max_filesize to 2048 and restarted the Apache and still the result is same.
What could be the problem, any help will appreciated.
I got the problem resolved by the answer here Changes to upload_max_filesize in Ubuntu php.ini will not take effect.
Instead of restarting the apache I have to restart the php using
sudo service php7.2-fpm restart
You should also change in php.ini:
post_max_size=2Gb
first at all you should remove all older php version on your ubuntu.
what is your cli php version?
are you sure that you find correctly php.ini location?
please run this command " locate php.ini "
Sometimes due to error in php.ini files the configuration files are not loaded after that specific error line. In that case you have to thoroughly check the php.ini file and fix the errors.
Alternatively you can download fresh php.ini files for your php version and replace your existing file with the new one.
After making changes in the new file restart your server using service apache2 restart .
If changing /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini and /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini still does not work out, try changing /etc/php/7.2/apache2/php.ini. Please note that you might have to restart the apache2 server using sudo service apache2 restart. (This solution is tested on server with Ubuntu installed. )
I have a small problem with upload file.
I was set in php.ini:
upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300
But when I re-check, it still have old value
upload_max_filesize 2M
value in phpinfo()
I used php7-fpm with nginx, and restarted after change php.ini.
Please help me, thanks.
Do Changes in you config file /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini and save it.
Then run the following commands:
sudo service php7-fpm restart
sudo service nginx restart
Check phpinfo() it will work!
You are probably editing php.ini fole for PHP command-line.
This topic discuss php.ini location for nginx (also fpm is mentioned here):
php.ini: which one?
PHP CLI on my Mac OSX ignores memory_limit settings.
I located php.ini using
php -i | grep php.ini
Then I fixed it:
memory_limit = 1024M
I even restarted Apache
sudo apachectl restart
But still when I run
php -i | grep memory_limit
I get
memory_limit => 256M => 256M
What could it be?
Thanks in advance!!!
If you run this command
php --info | grep additional
You may see a result like this:
Scan this dir for additional .ini files => /usr/local/php5/php.d
This indicates that your PHP installation is also scanning an additional folder of .ini files that will augment your configuration - usually these are for extensions but any of these can override the settings that are in your loaded php.ini file. Check whether these are overriding your memory_limit:
cd /usr/local/php5/php.d
grep memory_limit *
In my case I had a developer extensions file that was resetting the memory_limit to 256M, which meant that making changes in php.ini had no effect. Perhaps this is the issue you're having.
CLI PHP may not be using the same php.ini as Apache uses, but you can specify which to use at command line..
php -c path/to/php.ini>|/path/to/php-file-to-run.php
Try to find on this file:
/usr/local/php5/php.d/99-liip-developer.ini # in my case 99- but i think it could be another number
and set this:
memory_limit = -1 #or another value to specify the limit Ex: 521M
I have read many solutions on internet , but still cannot change upload_max_filesize value (upload_max_filesize always = 2M )
here is my loaded php.ini in phpinfo() :
Configuration File (php.ini) Path /etc/php/7.0/apache2
Loaded Configuration File /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
Scan this dir for additional .ini files /etc/php/7.0/apache2/conf.d
upload_max_filesize 2M 2M
post_max_size 8M 8M
here is my edited php.ini in /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
; http://php.net/post-max-size
post_max_size = 86M
; http://php.net/upload-max-filesize
upload_max_filesize = 40M
im using ubuntu 14.04,apache2,php7.0
(I have reset apache2 many time after each change in php.ini )
I had a fix for PHP-FPM 7.1
Edit your php.ini in
/etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini
Make changes to whatever option you want like, post_max_size, upload_max_filesize, max_execution_time & so...
save & close file.
run
sudo service php7.1-fpm restart
It will work!
I had an other fix for it.
os: ubuntu 16.04
phpversion: 7.0
I created a phpinfo.php file containing:
<?php phpinfo() ?>
place the phpinfo.php file in the root of your website www.mywebsite.com/phpinfo.php
Navigating to it and lookup the line:
Loaded Configuration File : /etc/php/7.0/cgi/php.ini
Now you know what php.ini file is loaded.
ssh into the server and use your favorite editing tool (mine is nano) to adjust the php.ini
change the values to meet your preferences.
post_max_size = 128M
upload_max_filesize = 64M
Save and close the file.
Restart apache
sudo service apache2 restart
__
check the phpinfo.ini if the new values are as set.
and if they do you are set to go.
i fingured out !
in my loaded php.ini config , my error_reporting values is E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT & ~E_DEPRECATED-> this is wrong!, so i changed it to
error_reporting: E_ALL and then restart apache2 server,
now everything working fine !
so please note : if php.ini have any error , it will use default value (which means upload_max_filesize always 2M )
For php7.2-fpm
Ubuntu php-fpm located at /etc/php/7.2/fpm so
cd /etc/php/7.2/fpm
sudo nano php.ini
Search for post_max_size = 512M and add your fav size that you really needed
Search for upload_max_filesize = 512M and add your fav size that you really needed
Save File
And Last DO NOT FORGET TO RESTART PHP7.2-FPM to restart sudo service php7.2-fpm restart
Thats all!
I also found that restarting the httpd service didn't pick up changes in the loaded configuration file (/etc/php.ini on Fedora 29). It's worth listing all systemd units and doing a grep for the string "php":
# systemctl list-unit-files | grep php
php-fpm.service
Restarting php-fpm did the trick for me:
# systemctl restart php-fpm
I am using Nginx and my solution was to restart php-fpm.
Restarting Nginx didn't do anything.
sudo service php7.2-fpm restart
i also had this problem!
if you are using php-fpm service need to find php-fpm.conf and add line
php_admin_value[upload_max_filesize] = 100M
for changing other type of values
#just for example
php_flag[display_errors] = off
php_admin_value[error_log] = /var/log/fpm-php.www.log
php_admin_flag[log_errors] = on
After spending hours reading forum I've resolved this way:
cd /etc/php
find . -name "*.ini" | xargs grep -il upload_max_filesize
./7.1/apache2/php.ini
./7.1/mods-available/better.ini
./7.1/cgi/php.ini
./7.1/cli/php.ini
./7.1/phpdbg/php.ini
./7.1/fpm/conf.d/20-better.ini
./7.1/fpm/php.ini
./7.1/embed/php.ini
change upload_max_filesize in ./7.1/fpm/conf.d/20-better.ini then
/etc/init.d/php7.1-fpm restart
now phpinfo reports: upload_max_filesize 10G 10G
Hope this helps.
Most people are forgetting to restart their php via the terminal that's why it isn't working, if you think you've done everything correctly be sure to restart your php & the server.
Yeah, Actually I forgot to restart correctly.
sudo service apache2 restart is not enough
first add the configurations to /etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini and to /etc/php/7.1/cli/php.ini
#/php/ - then your php version here instead "7.1"
ACtually one of these configuration file is the active one (if you want to see what use <?php phpinfo() ?> command in indextest.php file and check it on browser)
Then change these parameters on each file with what you want:
post_max_size = 512M
upload_max_filesize = 512M
And then use following command to restart the php server:
sudo service php7.0-fpm restart #php<then your php version here> instead "7.0"
or
sudo /etc/init.d/php7.1-fpm restart #php<then your php version here> instead "7.1"
Now you should be able to see the changes of upload size. Cheers !
as shown in here you can get to know more about the php server controlls :
$ sudo service php7.0-fpmstart # <- restart it
$ sudo service php7.0-fpm stop # <- restart it
$ sudo service php7.0-fpm restart # <- restart it
$ sudo service php7.0-fpm reload # <- reload it
create two different files in the root of your project(if you are a Wordpress user,it is the root public_html folder).one is php.ini & the second one is .user.ini
and then simply add these two lines of codes in both files.
upload_max_filesize = 20M
post_max_size = 20M
don't forget to restart the server.
and also make sure the user.ini file must be starting with a dot (.)
systemctl restart apache2
In my case I was editing the wrong one. It turns out I should mondify this /etc/php/7.2/apache2/php.ini
After doing so, it worked!
For those who have all the obvious settings mentioned in other answers and PHP file uploads are stil not working.
Check php.ini for open_basedir value. If a value is set (which it should be for security reasons), make sure that /tmp is included there. Or choose a custom value in upload_tmp_dir and set open_basedir accordingly.
Then reload the FPM service.
I installed multiple versions of PHP on MacOS Big Sur following the steps here
I used command:
sudo /usr/local/bin/httpd -k restart
to load changes made to the php.ini file.
open your putty or bitvise ssh client login your server
sudo apt update
After that
cd /etc/php/7.4/apache2/
see the list to hit command below
ls -ltr
output
total 76
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 4 14:31 conf.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 72540 Sep 7 09:28 php.ini
to open php.ini enter the below command
sudo nano php.ini
Move down Arow till not find the Below code
upload_max_filesize = 20M
change 20MB to your desired upload size Press ctrl+s to save php.ini and exit to the editor to command prompt hot ctrl+x after that to reload apache2 hit the below command
sudo systemctl reload apache2
Happy coding
I am running a webserver with the following configuration:
Ubuntu 14.04
PHP 5.5.9
PHP-FPM
Nginx
When I upload a file in a Symfony application I am getting the error The file is too large. Allowed maximum size is 2 MiB.. I already altered the maxFileSize annotation in the entity but the problem seems to rely in the server configuration.
If I run phpinfo() it returns me the following path to my php.ini: /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini
In this php.ini I have changed the following settings:
upload_max_filesize = 8M
post_max_size = 8M
Then I restarted php-fpm (service php-fpm restart) but the changes don't appear on the phpinfo page because it still says: upload_max_filesize 2M.
Do I miss something?
Problem solved. It seems that stopping PHP-FPM is quite tricky. Looking further on Serverfault I found that some people had to kill all PHP-FPM processes manually:
sudo pkill php5-fpm
sudo service php5-fpm start
This worked for me.
