AnotherAndrew Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 I have a file field where a user can upload videos and then link to in a text field. However, when I try to upload a large video file, say 60 megs, it does not completely upload. I am testing on MAMP and have set the upload file size and post size to 200 megs, but it is still not working. Anyone have suggestions to how this can work?
apeisa Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 One thing you could do is to try uploading using older browser (IE 6-9, Safari 5 or below, Opera 11.0 or below: Support table). If it works there, then we know the problem is in ajax upload. Otherwise it must be server issue.
AnotherAndrew Posted December 8, 2011 Author Posted December 8, 2011 Ok, thanks. I forgot to mention that I was using Firefox 3. This seems to be the problem.
apeisa Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 Not sure I understand. Does it work with smaller files?
ryan Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 Stop using Firefox 3, we're on version 8 now. But if you find there is still an issue in newer browsers, you might also want to check your post_max_size in PHP settings. That has to be a number at least as large as your max_upload_size.
AnotherAndrew Posted December 8, 2011 Author Posted December 8, 2011 Stop using Firefox 3, we're on version 8 now. I wish I could but I'm broke and can't afford a new computer! Yes this seems to be a problem on older browsers. I have no problem with the latest browsers.
