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?
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 want to edit my php.ini file to allow file uploads. Running phpinfo() tells me that it is located at /usr/local/lib/php.ini. However, I am paying for hosting and can only make these changes via DirectAdmin.
How can I make the change I need to make to my PHP config using DirectAdmin?
Alternatively if the php.ini file is located on a shared host and the administrator is not willing to make changes (which often is the case) you can create a ".user.ini" file with the following settings to allow uploading of files. Just adjust the values to your requirements.
max_execution_time = value
max_input_time = value
post_max_size = value
upload_max_filesize = value
memory_limit = value
If you are using ubuntu server, php.ini file is found in apache2 dir
Open php ini file
sudo nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
And change upload_max_filesize and post_max_size in order to increase uploaded file size limit.
Next restart apache server
sudo service apache2 restart
or
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Now check phpinfo()
I want to upload 20 MB file in php, but file is not uploading.
i have changed the php.ini file but still file is not uploading.
Changes of php.ini file is below.
max_execution_time = 300
upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
any help will be appreciated Thanks
You have made the necessary changes in the php.ini file, however after doing the changes in your php.ini file you need to restart your HTTP server to use new configuration.
You need a restart Apache web server after changed in configuration of Apache file.
Restart Apache web server, enter:
# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
If you are using Ubuntu use sudo:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
in my phpinfo(); I see that my php.ini file is in /etc/php5/cgi, I've changed there upload_max_filesize to upload_max_filesize = 2000M, but in my phpinfo(); I see that the value stays 2M, and when I upload a file it tells my that I exceed the maximum upload_max_filesize limit, why is that? I've restarted apache but nothing changed, any clues?
ps: using php as fastcgi
/etc/php/cgi/php.ini configures only php running in cgi mode (like in lighttpd). you need to make changes on /etc/php/apache2/php.ini
For Fedora 20, you can find your environment php.ini files in
/usr/share/doc/php-common/php.ini-development
/usr/share/doc/php-common/php.ini-production
or just do
locate php.ini
Go on ahead and apply the above changes there.
You don't need to restart the server. Just do
sudo service httpd reload
