Uploading attachments problem

Basically, I wanted limitless size regarding uploading attachments, so I changed all of the kb sizes (file size, folder size) to well past 90000000kb, but nothing is uploading no matter what size.  Do I have to put a more realistic figure there, and such a large is being equitable to 0?  The permissions are set.  I'm wondering if there is another area I need to doublecheck?

Here you go.  All gibberish to me  :D

Well... you have a few problems then:

  - post_max_size is too low.
  - upload_max_filesize is too low.
  - max_input_time should probably be higher for larger uploads.

Still?  I gave each option at least double or triple the default.  And what I tried to upload was a very small gif and it wouldn't work.  After reading this I went in and changed everything across the board to 307200KB which is kinda big and nothing will still upload.  So, I'm not sure if that's the problem.  Other than the Edit Features and Options area in admin, is there another spot I should checking the size...or a different area for permissions or something?


Edit:  Wait a minute....max input time I don't think I changed, I'm not aware of that option.  Which area of admin is that?

Sorry... these are PHP settings, nothing that SMF can control at all.  You'll have to ask your host to change them.

PHP is "protecting" your server with these settings.  As high as you set the SMF settings, PHP is the "bottom line".

I am getting the same problem.  I am trying to upload a 60K file size. I can't as it gives me the error that too long to upload or too large.  I did the same thing. Set it all large size. I checked my phpinfo and I think it is still good.  I even contacted my webhost ISP and they said that the permissions are set.

FYI, here is my phpinfo. http://quilted-dreams.com/hello.php
Any ideas?

Sorry for taking so long to respond, DeafBug.  In the future, I recommend you start a new topic - you'll get a quicker response.  Please start new topics for new requests.

Everything looks fine there.  What attachment setttings are you using?

Well,

upload_max_filesize 2M (your php.ini setting)
