File is too big - maximum allowed size is 8192 kb

[jonatan]

Hi,

When I try to upload a file I get File is too big - maximum allowed size is 8192 kb

Any ideas why that could be?
I've checked the php.ini but "8192" is nowhere to be found. So must be something PW related.

My sites are running locally on MAMP Pro. 
The really weird thing is, that when I try to upload the same file (26mb size) on another PW site, also on my local MAMP PRO, I get no errors at all and the file uploads fine...

Anyone who could have a clue? Or have experienced anything alike? ?

Thanks a lot!

All the best,
Jonatan.

Pretty sure it's in your php.ini file. See here:

Not Processwire jacmaes is right, check your php.ini settings max_uploads.

The upload limit is set by php.ini's 'post_max_size' setting.

If you are using php-fpm, make sure to restart php itself so that the setting takes effect:

sudo service php7.4-fpm restart
