Title: Problem processing large image files (Newbie)
Post by: jnvogel on December 18, 2007, 03:59:34 PM
Hi,

I recently installed and started using Coppermine and its working great except for one problem: I can't process large image files.  No problem for 1600x1200px (900MB) images but can't process a 4100x2900px (1.9 MB) image.  I've configured the maximum dimensions to 4500 and max upload to 2500.  When I do a batch upload, then try to process them with GD, I get an 'x' for the picture (same type of thing for the other two methods for uploading).  I even upped the memory_limit to 64M in the php.ini file.  Like I said it works fine for smaller pictures, so it seems like a process problem.

Thanks! - John V

There are many server-sided restrictions that might apply, see http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24088.0
It's not a bright idea to store such large files imo.

After following your link I did find the error after doing an http upload, and it seems like it was a processing error in that the server doesn't allocate enough memory to the process.  Apparently I can't change the memory limits in the php.init file.
