why i always failed to upload attachment in my forum. Error msg is

Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow.

i just upload 2 MB, in my setting for attachment  :
Max attachment folder space:  1000000 KB
Max attachment size per post: 60000 KB
Max size per attachment:  100000 KB
Max number of attachments per post: 5

This usually happens when you time out. You can try it with a faster connection or ask your hosts to adjust the php.ini file to allow for longer upload times.

That will also show if your webserver doesn't have the right permissions to the temporary upload directory.

Thanks motoko - I didn't know that would still be the error. :)

yep, use a phpinfo (What is phpinfo.php?) check the max_execution_time and the upload_max_filesize.

If either of those are exceeded, it will not work.  This happens before SMF can even get a say in anything
