Phantom Filesize limit - Solved

[cavergary]

I'm setting up a gallery for old maps. File sizes are inhearently large.   However, my configuration seems to be limiting to 3mb uploads.   After searching the boards here, and at apache.org  I'm quite baffeled as to the location of the problem. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Test File to upload is 3,090 kb 3171x2112 pixles  .jpg

The errors I get alternate in random order:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in e:\mapgallery\cpg132\db_input.php on line 20

No file uploaded - ensure server allows uploads.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration Apache 1.3 on Windows 2000 server with php 4.3 and Imagemagick

my php.ini settings:

Code Select Expand

max_execution_time = 300     ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
memory_limit = 200M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 300M

I noticed a post about Windows users with diskquotas.  There are no  disk quotoas set on my Windows box.

Please be kind when you point out the obviously overlooked settings!    

Thanks

Thanks for the link,  that and a week off helped clear my mind a lot.   So... I had 2 php.ini files on my system, not sure why, but I did.  I was editing the WRONG ONE!      Boy do I feel like an idiot!  It was looking at the phpinfo()  that alerted me to the obvious problem.  So thanks! Now I'm uploading huge-amous files without a problem!

Thanks for coming back and posting what you did to solve this issue. I don't think you're an idiot, as you had the courage to say you were wrong and you found out the solution for yourself. That's clever trouble-shooting imo. I wish there were more users who resolved the support requests the way you did.

Cheers
