Hey FileShare, really impressed w/ your module. Just a quick question (and I hope this is the right place to do it?)

When creating a new FileShare node, there's a message that reads "The current post file size limit is set to 8M, and the upload size is 2M." I understand where the 2mb comes from, but what does the 8mb limit come from? I uploaded about 16mb worth of files, so I'm guessing that that means that we cannot have the body of the post cannot be more than 8mb. Is that right?

Thanks, cool work!

They come from the php.ini settings. These are settings that you really have to change in the php.ini file - the ini_set functions don't seem to do the trick:

post_max_size
upload_max_filesize

Hope that helps!
Jamie.

Probably a stupid PHP newbie question...

Updated my php.ini's filesizes at:

post_max_size
upload_max_filesize

and (through the UI) updated the sizes through Site Configuration...File Uploads (for default and by role)

and restarted Apache and MySQL...

Still stuck with smaller file sizes. I can't go over 64 MB.

Sometimes it confirms the file is uploaded, sometimes not, but upon page refresh, the new file is not there. Nor is it in the drupal upload folder.

Is there a timeout I need to extend?

Thanks - this is one *very* helpful module.
