Problem with uploads [message #6004]

For some reason I cannot get our forum's to allow file uploads greater than about 2 megs. I'm sure of the exact size limit.

Inside the 'category & forum management' and on the 'editing forum departments' page, I have tried many different value's for max attachment size (currently at 10000000 for testing)

For some reason, files upload just fine if they are under about 2 megs.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Harry

You've come across PHP's file upload limit, you can change this limit via php.ini, this is not something a forum can modify.

Change this:

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 2M

To:
; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 8M

inside php.ini file, after you make the change don't forget to restart the webserver.
