Description:
------------
I'm trying to do a file upload in php with a webform.
I've set my max filesize to 8192000.
I've modified php.ini
max_execution_time = 60
max_input_time = 120
memory_limit = 128M
post_max_size = 12M
upload_max_filesize = 8M

I cannot send a file larger than 2M up to the server.
And when I run phpinfo() it always shows 2M as the upload_max_filesize.

I've also tried ini_set("upload_max_filesize","8192000") to no avail.
The files I'm trying to upload are about 3M so I have quite a bit of headroom with that 8192000 value.

Reproduce code:
---------------
There is no need for source code that I can see as it's a phpinfo() that is showing me where the problem is and no matter what I set upload_max_filesize to, it will not work.

None of the solutions on old bug reports have helped, and since this is the latest edition I guess I'm the first one to report that this isn't fixed with the new release.

Works fine for me. Check from the phpinfo() output that the php.ini file you're editing is actually used by PHP..

Thanks so much.  I overlooked that for some reason.  It had my php.ini file in /usr/local/lib instead of /etc where I expected it to be.  When I moved the php.ini file there while I was trying to fix it, php stopped working completely so I assumed that wasn't the solution.  I copied a fresh php.ini-dist over to that location and changed my settings and it's working now.

Thanks a million,
R

I hadn't noticed that it said there was no configuration file loaded.
